Could someone please explain how you do this question.Please show working out.
Given that D~B(12,0.7) calculate
A) P((D<4)
B)The smallest value of d such that P(D>d)<0.9
i can do A but thought I'd include it if the answer is at all involved in B.
Given that D~B(12,0.7) calculate
A) P((D<4)
B)The smallest value of d such that P(D>d)<0.9
i can do A but thought I'd include it if the answer is at all involved in B.

You're looking for the smallest d, such that 1-P(D<=d) < 0.9
Or rearranging.
0.1 < P(D<=d)
The result of part b) tells you that d > 3, so you need to try 4, 5, .... for the cumulative probability to get a value > 0.1
