On your TI-84

binomcdf(36,.5,15)

gives

to get binomcdf( press 2nd then VARS then scroll down to binomcdf(

If you have the newer version of TI-84 you will get a screen where you
put 36 for the trials, .5 for the p and 15 for the x value.  Then
go to Paste and binomcdf(36,.5,15) will appear on the screen and
