Question

At Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport, 83% of recent flights have arrived on time. Suppose 20 flights are randomly selected.

  1. What is the probability that at least 17 of the flights arrived on time?

So I already had this question answered on this site, but I didn't understand what the person was doing. Is this binomcdf or binompdf? Which ones are the n, p, and x? Do I need to do 1-(17,.83, 20)? 

or is this μx=np? Please help by better explaining this. 

Evaluating the probability that at least 17 of the flights arrived on time:
P(17)+P(18)+P(19)+P(20)
P(17)-" C * 0.8317 * (1-0.83)
P(20) .: C * 0.8320 * (1-0.83)。
= 1 * 0.8320
20!
