उत्तर

`p = (1)/(10), q = (9)/(10), n = 10`

Required probability ( at least three phones busy)
= 1 - ( Probability maximum two phones are busy)

= `1 - [ ""^10C_0 (1/10)^0 (9/10)^0 + ""^10C_1 (1/10)^1 (9/10)^9 + ""^10C_2 (1/10)^2 (9/10)^8 ] `

= `1 - [ 1 xx 1 xx(9/10)^10 + 10 xx (1)/(10) xx (9/10)^9 + 45 xx (1)/(100) xx (9/10)^8 ]`

= `1 - [ (9/10)^9 (9/10 + 1 + 1/2) ]`

= `1 - [ (9/10)^9 ((9 + 10 + 5)/10) ]`

= `1 - [ (9/10)^9 (12/5) ]`

= `1 - [ 0.3874 xx (12)/(5) ]`

= `1 - [0.93] = 0.07`
