Question 1182889: The engines on an airliner operate independently and the chance of an engine
malfunctioning is 5%. Find the probability that fewer than 9 out of 150 randomly
selected airline engines malfunction.
1. Determine the binomial parameters, n and p, giving values and descriptions.
2. Determine the question being asked, P(x “=, <, <, >, or >” a number), that is, write the
question symbolically as illustrated in lecture videos (and page 2 of this lab 3 packet).
3. Determine the calculator command needed to solve the problem.
(See separate sheet on using calculator to solve binomial problems.)
4. Use the calculator to find the solution to the binomial probability;
round answers to 4 decimal places.
5. Write your answer in a sentence in terms of the application

Cutting and pasting your entire assignment, with nothing else in your post, does a couple of things....
(1) It strongly suggests you simply want us to do your work for you -- which is not the purpose of this forum.
(2) It tells us you aren't even putting in any effort to make the post usable to us; we don't have access to your lecture videos, lab packets, or the sheet on using a calculator to solve binomial probability problems.
