Eight percent of all college graduates hired by companies stay with the same company for more than five years. The probability, rounded to four decimal places, that in a random sample of 14 such college graduates hired recently by companies, exactly 2 will stay with the same company for more than five years is _?_.

P(X=2) &= {14\choose 2}(0.08)^2(0.92)^{12} \

&= \frac{14!}{2!(14-2)!}(0.08)^2(0.92)^{12} \


\sf\implies\:&=(14*13)/(2*1)(0.08)^2(0.92)^(12)

&= 91(0.08)^2(0.92)^{12} \

&\approx \boxed{0.2166
