Question 268513
A survey of 12 people at a bookstore showed that five had purchased a hardcover book. If seven people are selected at random, what is the probability that four of them had purchased a hardcover book?

Binomial Problem:
n = 7 ; p = 5/12 ; x = 4
----
P(x=4) = 7C4(5/12)^4*(7/12)^3 = 0.2094
