I solved each of these problems
Thanks alot - it worked. How would you compose a short formula depicting:
P {Only 1} = [P (Power) x P (NotPower) x P (NotPower) x P (NotPower)
x P (NotPower)] +
[P (NotPower) x P (Power) x P (NotPower) x P (NotPower) x P
(NotPower)] +
[P (NotPower) x P (NotPower) x P
Your probability distribution is binomial
p = 0.51q = 0.49
In five trials, the distribution is ( p + q ) ^ 5
= p^5 + 5 p^4q + 10 p^3q^2 + 10 p^2q^3 + 5 pq^4 + q^5
So the probability for one power and four not is 5 pq^4 and
for at least one is 1 - q^5
