Col Pi= .7
Row X=10

P(X=10) + P(X=11

Probability 10 or 11 resolved today P(X=10) + p(x=11)

.206 + .214= .425

43% chance of resolving 10 or 11 today.

D. Probability more than 10 calls resolved today

P(X > 10) = P( X=11) + P(X=12) + P(X=13) + P(X=14)

.219 + .170 + .092 + .031 _ .005

=.517

Approximately 52 percent chance of more than 10 resolutions.
