You are making $10$ yes-or-no experiments, assuming they are all independent with the same probability of success $p = 0.35$. Your random variable is the number of successes in those attempts.

  • Which distribution does it follow?
  • To compute probability of more than 2, you may want to compute the probability of less than or equal to 2.
