I have to submit this again...This is my third attempt.  Please explain as if you are explaining math to an inbecile that does not know anything...  I keep getting a bunch of equations and I do not know how you are getting the answers. Also, please, if there is an excel formula, can you please share it. 

For example: when I see P(x=0) + P(x=5) + P(x=10) I don't understand what we are calculating... I am just seeing answers underneath and it doesn't make sense to me. Please help me to understand how to calculate this. Thank you very much! 

Hello, could you please help me understand this problem? Can this be calculated with excel? I have seen the equations, but I do not understand them. I only understand problem "a". Can you please explain the steps through problems b-f

Thank you very much!
