To solve the problem of finding the probability of a man hitting a target at least twice after shooting 7 times, we can use the binomial probability formula. Here’s a step-by-step breakdown of the solution: ### Step 1: Identify the parameters - The probability of hitting the target (P) = 0.25 - The probability of missing the target (Q) = 1 - P = 1 - 0.25 = 0.75 - The number of trials (n) = 7 (the number of shots) - We want to find the probability of hitting the target at least twice, which means we need to calculate P(X ≥ 2). ...
