If the probability of getting a doctor’s appointment for the same time that a patient call is 60%, find the probability that of 8 patients calling a doctor’s office, at lowest possible 6 will be able to see him that year.
Answer:
Let P(x) = the probability that exactly x people will receive a same-day appointment
P(6) + P(7) + P(8)
= (8C6 * .6^6 * .4^2) + (8C7 * .6^7 * .4^1) + (8C8 * .6^8 * .4^0)
= 0.20901888 + 0.08957952 + 0.01679616
= 0.31539456
= 31.539456%
