In survey conducted by a social worker 30 % of the woman responded that they were victims of domestic violence. Assume that this percentage is true for all women in the United States. Using binomial probability distribution find the probability that the number of women in a random samples of 20 who were victims of domestic violence is a) at least 6, b) between 7 and 11 (inclusive) c) at most 8.
