Data collected at elementary schools in Los Angeles County, CA suggest that each year roughly 25% of students miss exactly one day of school, 15% miss 2 days, and 28% miss 3 or more days due to sickness. a. What is the probability that a student chosen at random does not miss any days of school due to sickness this year? b. What is the probability that a student chosen at random misses no more than one day?

According to weather data records from Vancouver International Airport (since 1981), there is some precipitation (rain or snow) on 46.25% of all days in Vancouver. If you randomly select 7 days since 1981, what is the probability that there is some rain or snow on 4 or more of those days? (Assume the 7 days are independent.) State your answer rounded to four decimal places.
