Suppose you are a district manager of a health management organization (HMO) that is monitoring the office of a local doctor or nurse in general family practice. This morning the office you are monitoring has eight office visits on the schedule. What is the probability of the following?

(a) At least half the patients are under 15 years old. (Round your answer to three decimal places.)

(b) From 2 to 5 patients are 65 years old or older (include 2 and 5). (Round your answer to three decimal places.)

(c) From 2 to 5 patients are 45 years old or older (include 2 and 5). (Hint: Success if 45 or older. Use the table to compute the probability of success on a single trial. Round your answer to three decimal places.)

(d) All the patients are under 25 years of age. (Round your answer to three decimal places.)

(e) All the patients are 15 years old or older. (Round your answer to three decimal places.)
