Answer:

(a) Each crime has 20% chance of being solved according to the question.

You use Binomial Theorem:

P(x) = nCx*p^x*(1-p)^n-x

where p is probability of solving crime, n is number of crimes, and x is theoretical number of crimes solved

p = 0.2

n = 3

x = 0

P(0) = (0.8)^3 =0.512

Answer = 0.512
