According to the most recent University student profile, 28% of students are male. Given a sample of 15 students:
a. Find the probability that none are male.
Ans: P(x = 0) = (0.72)^15
----------------------------------
b. Find the probability that 10 are male.
Ans: P(x = 10) = 15C10*(0.28)^10*(0.72)^5
-----------------------------------
c. Find the probability that at least six are male.
P(6<= x <= 15) = 1 - P(0<= x <=5) = 1 - binomcdf(15,0.28,5) = 0.2220
