Question

At a Noodles & Company restaurant, the probability that a customer will order a nonalcoholic beverage is .51. Find the probability that in a sample of 10 customers, fewer than 8 will order a nonalcoholic beverage.

Answer 1

1-0.7584=0.2416

Explanation:

The probability nobody will order a non-A beverage is .56^8=0.0097

all 8 will order a non-A beverage is 0.44^8=0.0014

fewer than 6:

look at 6,7,8

Those add to 0.0794 and the answer is 1- that or 0.9206. Also 2nd VARS (.44,8,5)

b. at least 5 is 5,6,7,8

that is 1-P(0-4)

=1-0.7584=0.2416
