Calculation:
Binomial probability:
Suppose X is a random variable with n trails and probability of success p, then probability of getting exactly k successes is,
P(X=k)=(nk)pk(1p)nk
Substitute n=8,p=0.9,k=7 in the binomial probability formula.
P(X=7)=(87)(0.9)7(10.9)87
Hence, the value of P(X=7) is 0.383.
