Question
Let \( x \) be a binomial random variable with \( n = 20 \) and \( p = 0.1 \).

**(a)** Calculate \( P(x \leq 5) \) using the binomial formula.  
(Round your answer to five decimal places.)  
\[ \boxed{0.86732} \]

**(b)** Calculate \( P(x \leq 5) \) using Table 1 in Appendix 1.  
(Round your answer to three decimal places.)  
\[ \boxed{0.867} \]

**(c)** Use the following Excel output to calculate \( P(x \leq 5) \).  
(Round your answer to four decimal places.)  

\[
\begin{array}{c|cccccccccc}
x & 0 & 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & 5 & 6 & 7 & 8 & 9 & 10 \\
\hline
p(x) & 0.1216 & 0.2702 & 0.2852 & 0.1901 & 0.0898 & 0.0319 & 0.0089 & 0.0020 & 0.0004 & 0.0001 & 0.0000 \\
\end{array}
\]

\[
\begin{array}{c|cccccccccc}
x & 11 & 12 & 13 & 14 & 15 & 16 & 17 & 18 & 19 & 20 \\
\hline
p(x) & 7\text{E-07} & 5\text{E-08} & 4\text{E-09} & 2\text{E-10} & 9\text{E-12} & 3\text{E-13} & 8\text{E-15} & 2\text{E-16} & 2\text{E-18} & 1\text{E-20} \\
\end{array}
\]

**Compare the results of part (a), part (b), and part (c):**  
- When rounded to two decimal places, the results of part (a), part (b), and part (c) **agree with each other**.
