Answer:
And we can find the individual probabilities using the probability mass function and we got:
And replacing we got:
Step-by-step explanation:

The binomial distribution is a "DISCRETE probability distribution that summarizes the probability that a value will take one of two independent values under a given set of parameters. The assumptions for the binomial distribution are that there is only one outcome for each trial, each trial has the same probability of success, and each trial is mutually exclusive, or independent of each other".
Let X the random variable of interest, on this case we now that:
The probability mass function for the Binomial distribution is given as:
Where (nCx) means combinatory and it's given by this formula:
Solution to the problem
For this case we want this probability:
And we can use the complement rule and we got:
And we can find the individual probabilities using the probability mass function and we got:
And replacing we got:
We have to solve this quadratic equation for n to get <em>which figure has 56 blocks</em>.
For middle term factorization, we need <em>two numbers that multiplied gives us -56 and added gives us 1 (coefficient of n).</em>
<em>Such two numbers are </em><em>8</em><em> and </em><em>-7</em><em>. We can now write,</em>
<em></em>
<u><em>"There is no negative figure number possible, so we disregard -8"</em></u>
Our answer is 7.
ANSWER: The 7th figure has 56 blocks.
