Answer: 0.8684
Step-by-step explanation:
In binomial distribution, the probability of getting success in x trials is given by :-
[tex]P(X=x)=^nC_xp^xq^{n-x}[/tex] , where n is the total number of trials , p is the probability of getting success in each trial and q is the probability of not getting success in each trial .
For the given scenario , Let x denotes the number of tickets have popcorn coupons as success.
As per given , the probability of buying a movie ticket with a popcorn coupon : p= 0.774
the probability of buying a movie ticket without a popcorn coupon : q= 0.226
if n= 16
Then, the probability that more than 10 of the tickets have popcorn coupons will be :-
[tex]P(x>10)=P(x=11)+P(x=12)+P(x=13)+P(x=14)+P(x=15)+P(x=16)\\\\=^{16}C_{11}(0.774)^{11}(0.226)^5+^{16}C_{12}(0.774)^{12}(0.226)^4+^{16}C_{13}(0.774)^{13}(0.226)^3+^{16}C_{14}(0.774)^{14}(0.226)^2+^{16}C_{15}(0.774)^{15}(0.226)^1+^{16}C_{16}(0.774)^{16}(0.226)^0\\\\=\dfrac{16!}{11!5!}(0.774)^{11}(0.226)^5+\dfrac{16!}{12!4!}(0.774)^{12}(0.226)^4+\dfrac{16!}{13!3!}(0.774)^{13}(0.226)^3+\dfrac{16!}{14!2!}(0.774)^{14}(0.226)^2+(16)(0.774)^{15}(0.226)^1+(1)(0.774)^{16}(0.226)^0\\\\=0.868404497984\approx0.8684[/tex]
Hence, the required probability = 0.8684
