You can put this solution on YOUR website! there is an 80% chance that a prospective employer will check the educational background of a job applicant. sixty-four job applications are randomly selected. find the probability that at least 50 of the applicants have their educational backgrounds checked
-----
Binomial Problem with n = 64 and p(checked) = 0.8
-----
P(50<= x <=64) = 1 - P(0<= x <=49) = 1 - binomcdf(64,0.8,49) = 0,7100
