Answer 1

Take note of the formula for the binomial probability.

Answer 2

\[\displaystyle P(x) = \frac{n!}{x!*(n-x)!}*p^x*(1-p)^{n-x}\]

Answer 3

where n is the sample size, p is the probability of success, and x is the number of successes.

The factorial works like 10! = 10*9*8*7*6*5*4*3*2*1 = 3628800..
