You can put this solution on YOUR website! 60% of emails deal in some way with economy,
if a random sample of 10 email is selected,
-------
Binomial Problem with n = 10 and P(economy) = 0.60 ; P(not economy) = 0.40
--------
what is the probability of
Exactly 5 emails deal in someway with economy
P(x = 5) = 10C5*0.6^5*0.4^5 = binompdf(10,0.60,5) = 0.2007
-------------------------------------------------------------
Exaclty 5 emails do not deal in someway with economy
Ans: Same as above:: 0.2007
