Question 438077: the probability of making a mistake on any given day is 3/4. If I have an opportunity to make a mistake each day one per day for the next 7 days what is the probability I will make a mistake in at least 2 opportunities??
Help please...test is due and I haven't a clue!
Thank You Thank You!

You can put this solution on YOUR website! the probability of making a mistake on any given day is 3/4. If I have an opportunity to make a mistake each day one per day for the next 7 days what is the probability I will make a mistake in at least 2 opportunities??
-----
Its binomial because you either make a mistake or you don't.
---
n = 7 ; p = 3/4
----
Each day you have probability of 3/4 to make a mistake and 1/4 to not
make a mistake.
---
P(2<= x <=7) = 1 - P(0<= x <=1) = 1 - binomcdf(7,3/4,1) = 0.9987
