Firlakuza [10]

Answer: The required probability is 0.32.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Probability of winning team A over B = 0.7

Probability of losing team A over B = 0.3

Number of matches = 7"

So, using the "Binomial distribution" :

We get that

$P(X=5)=^7C_5(0.7)^5(0.3)^2=0.32$

Hence, the required probability is 0.32.
