I need help on how to do this binomial probability problem on a TI-84 calculator: use the fact that approximately 2% of people have blood type B-. consider a random sample of 850 students.what is the probability that at least 13 students have blood type B-?
The complement event is that 12 or fewer of the 850 have blood type B-,
so we must find that and subtract it from 1.
On your TI-84:
Press ON
Press CLEAR
Type this---> 1-
Press 2nd
Press VARS
Press ALPHA
Press APPS
You should see this---> 1-binomcdf(
Type this---> 850,.02,12)
[The comma key is just above the 7 between the x² key and the "(" key]
You should see this---> 1-binomcdf(850,.
02,12)
Press ENTER
You should see this---> 1-binomcdf(850,.
02,12)
.8675104464
That's the answer, .8675104464
