Answer:

0.324

Explanation:

Given that :

Success rate = 30%

p = 30% = 0.3

q = 1 - p = 1 - 0.3 = 0.7

Number of trials, n = 6

Probability of having exactly 2 successes ; x = 2

P(x = 2)

Usibgbtge binomial probability relation :

P(x = x) = nCx * p^x * q^(n-x)

P(x = 2) = 6C2 * 0.3^2 * 0.7^4

P(x = 2) = 15 * 0.3^2 * 0.7^4

P(x = 2). = 0.324135

P(x = 2) = 0.324
