Explanation / Answer

2)

P(X <=14) = binomdist(14,30,0,4,1)

3)

P(X<12) = binomdist(12,30,0.4,1)

4)

P(X>=9) = 1 - P(X < 8)

= 1 - binomdist(8,30,0.4,1)

5)

P(X>9) = 1 - P(X<=9)

= 1 - binomdist(9,30,0.4,1)

6)

P(8<X<12) = P(X < 12) - P(X < 8)

= binomdist(11,30,0.4,1) - binomdist(7,30,0.4,1)

7)

P(X>=18) = 1 - P(X <18)

= 1 - binomdist(17,30,0.4,1)
