You can put this solution on YOUR website! It is estimated that 4000 of the 10,000 voting residents of a town are against a new sales tax.
If 15 eligible voters are selected at random and asked their opinion, what is the probability that at most 7 favor the new tax?
-------------------------
Binomial Problem with n = 15 and p = 0.4
---
P(0<= x <=7) = binomcdf(15,0.4,7) = 0.7869
