Number of trials, n = 15
Expected success, r = 13
Probability of having a VCR, p = 70% = 0.7
Probability of not having a VCR, q = 1 - p = 0.3
According to the binomial distribution, the probability of 13 out of 15 households having a VCR is
₁₅C₁₃ p¹³ q¹⁵⁻¹³
= [15!/(13!2!)]*(0.7¹³)*(0.3²)
= 0.0916
Answer: 0.0916 (or 9.16%)
