Step 1
The Binomial probability distribution is:
P(X=x)=(beg{array}{c}nxend{array})(p)x(1p)nx
In the formula, n denotes the number of trails, p denotes probability of success, and x denotes the number of success.
From the given information, the values are n=4 and p=0.3.
Step 2
The value of P(X=3) is,
P(X=3)=(beg{array}{c}43end{array})(0.3)3(10.3)43
=4×0.027×0.7
=4×0.0189
=0.0756
Thus, the value of P(X=3) is 0.0756
