Question 875416: The weather forcaster has predicted that there is a 25% probability of rain on any of the next 4 days. What is the probability that it will rain at least twice? Answer by ewatrrr(24785) (Show Source):
Hi
p(rain) = .25, n = 4
P(x >= 2) = 1 - binomcdf(4, .25, 1) = .2617 (Recommend Using TI)
Or P(x >= 2) = P(2) + P(3) + P(4)
Using
p and q are the probabilities of success and failure respectively.
In this case p= .25, q = .75, n=4
