The probability that the student will pass is; P(pass)

=

P(10) + P(9) + P(8) =

[10C10 + 10C9 + 10C8] / (.5)10 =

56/1024 ~

~ 0.0547 ~ 5.47%

A test consists of 10 true or false questions to pass the test the student must answer atleast 8 correctly if the student guesses on each question what is the probability that the student will pass?

7/128, or about 5.5% The student has a 1/2 probability of getting each question correct. The probability that he passes is the probability that he gets 10 correct+probability that he gets 9 correct+probability that he gets 8 correct: P(passes)=P(10 right)+P(9 right)+P(8 right)=[(1/2)^10]+[(1/2)^10]*10+[(1/2)^10]*Combinations(10,2)=[(1/2)^10](1+10+45)=56/1024=7/128.
