E(X) = $75
E(X) = $10
E(X) = $62.50

A quarterback has a incomplete passing percentage of 30%. What is the probability that he does not complete at most 8 of his 20 passes?
This is a binomial probability, use 2nd, Vars, scroll up to binom...
It is the probability of multiple events, it is cumulative so use cdf.

A quarterback has a incomplete passing percentage of 30%. What is the probability that he does not complete at least 8 of his 20 passes?
'At least' means use the complement, which is 1minus...
You WANT at least 8 so you need to subtract the probability of no more than 7.
