Using what you learned in this week’s lessons, answer the following questions:

John is a 70% free-throw shooter. He decides to shoot 25 shots. We are interested in the number of successful shots. Assume the outcome on each shot is independent of all other shots.
Margie is not very good at throwing darts. She is successful at hitting the bull’s eye about 30% of the time. We are interested in the number of throws it takes for her to hit the bull’s eye 10 times.
