Consider a binomial distribution with 12 identical trials, probability of success of 0.3. Find the probability that x = 3 using the binomial tables.

Question 2

Consider a binomial distribution with 15 identical trials, and probability of success of 0.5. A machine cuts circular filters from large rolls of material. If 7.3 of the filters fail to meet specifications, use the normal approximation to the binomial to compute the probability that a sample of 100 of the filters will contain 5 or fewer that fail to meet specifications.
