According to weather records from Vancouver International Airport (since 1981), there is some precipitation (rain or snow) on 46.25% of all days in Vancouver. Suppose you are asked to calculate the probability that there is some rain or snow on exactly 4 out of 7 randomly selected days since 1981 (assuming the 7 days are independent).

Question
  1. According to weather records from Vancouver International Airport (since 1981), there is some precipitation (rain or snow) on 46.25% of all days in Vancouver.

    Suppose you are asked to calculate the probability that there is some rain or snow on exactly 4 out of 7 randomly selected days since 1981 (assuming the 7 days are independent). What Excel command should you use? (You should double-check by seeing if that command gives you a reasonable answer.)

      a.

    BINOM.DIST(4, 7, 0.4625, FALSE)

      b.

    BINOM.DIST(7, 4, 0.4625, FALSE)

      c.

    BINOM.DIST(4, 7, 0.4625, TRUE)

      d.

    BINOM.DIST(7, 4, 0.4625, TRUE)
