Forty-two percent of U.S. adults have a gun in their home. You randomly select 12 U.S. adults. Find the probability that the number who have a gun in their home is

(a) exactly two,

(b) at least two, and

(c) more than two.

In Exercises 13–16, find the indicated binomial probabilities. If convenient, use technology or Table 2 in Appendix B.
