The unemployment rate in a city is 13%. Find the probability that more than 2 out of 9 people from this city sampled at random are unemployed. Round your answer to four decimal places.
------------------------------------------
A binomial Problem with n = 9 ; p = 0.13 ; 3 <= x <=9
------------------------------------------------------
I have a calculator that will do this:
P(3 <= x <= 9) = 1 - [P(0 <= x <=2)] = 1 - 0.89907.. = 0.1009...
