Question 1180331
.
.
A baseball player has a batting average of 0.32. What is the probability that he has exactly 2 hits in his next 7 at bats?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


<pre>
It is the binomial type probability distribution.


The number of trial n= 7; the probability of the success trial is  0.32,  and the number of success trial k = 2. 


    P = {{{C[7]^2*0.32^2*(1-0.32)^5}}} = {{{((7*6)/(1*2))*0.32^2*0.68^5}}} = 0.3127 (rounded).     <U>ANSWER</U>
