(b) What is the probability that there is at least one winner on a randomly selected day?
P(X ≥ 1) = 1 - P(X = 0) = 1 - 0.720 = highlight%280.280%29
(c) What is the probability a that there are more than 2 winners on a randomly selected day?
P(X > 2) = P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) = 0.002 + 0.044 = highlight%280.046%29
