An oil drilling company ventures into various locations, and its success or failure is independent from one location to another. Suppose the probability of a success at any specific location is 0.25. (a) What is the probability that the driller drills at 10 locations and has 1 success? (b) What is the probability that the driller drills at 10 locations and has at least 2 success?
