11. Mimi joined UMUC basketball team since summer 2016. On average, she is able to
score 30% of the field goals. Assume she tries 15 field goals in a game.
(a) Let X be the number of field goals that Mimi scores in the game. As we know, the
distribution
of X is a binomial probability distribution. What is the number of trials (n), probability of
successes (p) and probability of failures (q), respectively?
(b) Find the probability that Mimi scores at least 2 of the 15 field goals. (round the answer to
3
decimal places) Show all work.
