Suppose that in the bookkeeping operation of a large corporation the probability of a recording error on any one billing is 0.005. Suppose the probability of a recording error from one billing to the next is constant, and 1,000 billings are randomly sampled by an auditor. a. What is the probability that fewer than six billings contain a recording error? b. What is the probability that more than 11 billings contain a billing error? c. What is the probability that exactly two billings contain a recording error? (Round your answers to 4 decimal places when calculating using Table A.3, e.g. 0.2153.) a. P(x < 6) = b. P(x > 11) = c. P(x = 2) =
