Hi
Binomial Distribution:  p(used a discount broker) = .3
Binomial Theorem: {{{P (x)= highlight_green(nCx)(p^x)(q)^(n-x) }}} 
Using TI or similarly an inexpensive calculator like a Casio fx-115 ES plus 
n = 9
(a) P(x = 2) = binompdf(9, .3, 2) = .2668
(b) P(x ≤ 3) = binomcdf(9, .3, 3) = .7297
(c) P(x ≥ 3)=  1 - P(x ≤ 2) = 1 - binomcdf(9, .3, 2) = 1-.4628 = .5372

Important You are  comfortable using Your Calculator.
by hand: {{{P (x = 2)= highlight_green(9C2)(.3^2)(.7)^(7) }}} = .2668
in b for ex: P(x=0) + P(x=1) + P(x=2) + P(x=3)
The Calculator does these computations and additions for you 
when using the binomcdf function.  My recommendations is USE your calculator.
Wish You the Best in your Studies.
