Follow-up Question

In Step 2 of the answer, I don't understand how to calculate.

P(X= 8) = ¹⁰C₈*(0.70)⁸*(1-0.70)^10-8

what is ¹⁰C_8?where does the number come from?

Then is it multiplied times(0.70)⁸

(1-0.70)^10-8does this equal (0.30)^2?

If you multiply the three numbers you get the probability?

Same goes for step 3
