example: Consider once again our free-throw shooter (Dolores) from the earlier example. Dolores is a 65% free-throw shooter and each shot is independent. If X is the count of free throws made by Dolores, then X has B(10, 0.65) if she shoots 10 free throws. What is P(X = 7)?

solution:

example: What is the probability that Dolores makes no more than 5 free throws? That is, what is P(X ≤ 5)?

solution:

There is about a 25% chance that she will make 5 or fewer free throws. The solution to this problem using the calculator is given by binomcdf (10,0.65,5).

example: What is the probability that Dolores makes at least 6 free throws?
