Question 929992: A very reliable baseball player is known to get a hit when at bat 44% of the time.
He is expected to have 101 more times at bat before the end of the season, and he is 50 hits away from breaking a league hitting record.
What is the probability of him breaking that record before the end of the season? Answer by ewatrrr(24785) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! p(hit) = .44, n = 101
P(x ≥ 50) = 1 - P(x ≤ 49) = 1- .8448 = .1552 0r 15.52% chance of breaking the record
