Explanation / Answer

n = 18

p = 0.8

1) P(X < 13) = 1 - P(X > 13)

= 1 - (P(X = 14) + P(X = 15) + P(X = 16) + P(X = 17) + P(X = 18))

= 1 - (18C14 * (0.8)14 * (0.2)4 + 18C15 * (0.8)15 * (0.2)3 + 18C16 * (0.8)16 * (0.2)2 + 18C17 * (0.8)17 * (0.2)1 + 18C18 * (0.8)18 * (0.2)0)

= 1 - 0.716 = 0.284

2) P(X > 10) = P(X = 11) + P(X = 12) + P(X = 13) + P(X = 14) + P(X = 15) + P(X = 16) + P(X = 17) + P(X = 18)

                     =18C11 * (0.8)11 * (0.2)7 + 18C12 * (0.8)12 * (0.2)6 + 18C13 * (0.8)13 * (0.2)5 + 18C14 * (0.8)14 * (0.2)4 + 18C15 * (0.8)15 * (0.2)3 + 18C16 * (0.8)16 * (0.2)2 + 18C17 * (0.8)17 * (0.2)1 + 18C18 * (0.8)18 * (0.2)0 = 0.9837

3) P(X > 14) = P(X = 14) + P(X = 15) + P(X = 16) + P(X = 17) + P(X = 18)

                     = 18C14 * (0.8)14 * (0.2)4 + 18C15 * (0.8)15 * (0.2)3 + 18C16 * (0.8)16 * (0.2)2 + 18C17 * (0.8)17 * (0.2)1 + 18C18 * (0.8)18 * (0.2)0 = 0.716

4) P(9 < x < 12) = P(X = 9) + P(X = 10) + P(X = 11) + P(X = 12)

                          = 18C9 * (0.8)9 * (0.2)9 + 18C10 * (0.8)10 * (0.2)8 + 18C11 * (0.8)11 * (0.2)7 + 18C12 * (0.8)12 * (0.2)6 = 0.132

5) P(X < 9) = 1 - P(X > 9)

                   = 1 - (P(X = 10) + P(X = 11) + P(X = 12) + P(X = 13) + P(X = 14) + P(X = 15) + P(X = 16) + P(X = 17) + P(X = 18))

        = 1 - (18C10 * (0.8)10 * (0.2)8 + 18C11 * (0.8)11 * (0.2)7 + 18C12 * (0.8)12 * (0.2)6 + 18C13 * (0.8)13 * (0.2)5 + 18C14 * (0.8)14 * (0.2)4 + 18C15 * (0.8)15 * (0.2)3 + 18C16 * (0.8)16 * (0.2)2 + 18C17 * (0.8)17 * (0.2)1 + 18C18 * (0.8)18 * (0.2)0)

= 1 - 0.9957 = 0.0043
