One out of four Americans over age 55 has eaten pizza for breakfast. If a sample of 10 Americans over age 55 is selected at random, find the probability that at most 3 have eaten pizza for breakfast.
----------------
It's binomial because each person either has or has not eaten pizza.
---------------
n = 10 ; p = 1/4 ; 0<=x<=3
-------------------------------
On a TI-83 use binomcdf(10,0.25,3) to get 0.7759
