Question

the probability of a radar station detecting an enemy plane is 62%. if 50 stations are in use what is the probability of exactly 35 stations detecting the enemy plane?

Answer 1

This is binomial probability with n=50 and p=0.62.

We want binom(50,0.62,35).

One way to calculate this is to use a calculator with statistical functions.

My TI-83 Plus turned out the result 0.061.
