Discrete Random Variables (DRV)

Given that \(X \sim \mathrm{B}(40, 0.64)\), find

  1. \(\mathrm{P}(X=28)\)
  2. \(\mathrm{P}(X > 21)\)
  3. \(\mathrm{P}(23.3 \le X \le 31.7)\)
  4. \(\mathrm{P}(X > 28.6)\)
  5. \(\mathrm{P}(|X - 31| < 4)\)
  6. \(\mathrm{P}(|X - 26| \ge 4)\)
  7. Probability that \(X\) lies within two standard deviations from the mean.
  8. Mode of \(X\).
