Shaquille O’Neal has a 0.53 probability of making a free throw. Assume independence from attempt to attempt. In three attempts, find the following probabilities [give numerical answers to four decimal places]: He made exactly two. He missed all three. 2. A coin is flipped 8 times: What is the probability it landed heads 5 times? What is the probability it landed heads at least once?
