~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 

(a)  Probability  P(0) = 1-0.16%29%5E11 = 0.84%5E11 = 0.1469.


(b)  Probability  P(1) = C%5B11%5D%5E1%2A0.16%5E1%2A%281-0.16%29%5E%2811-1%29 = 11%2A0.16%2A0.84%5E10 = 0.3078.


(c)  Probability  P(2) = C%5B11%5D%5E2%2A0.16%5E2%2A%281-0.16%29%5E%2811-2%29 = %28%2811%2A10%29%2F%281%2A2%29%29%2A0.16%5E2%2A0.84%5E9 = 0.2932.


(d)  Probability  P = P(0) + P(1) + P(2) = the sum of probabilities of (a), (b) and (c) above = 0.1469 + 0.3078 + 0.2932 = 0.7479.
