In a certain city district, the need for money to buy drugs stated as the reason for 61% of all thefts. Find the probability that among the next 5 theft cases reported in this district, (a) exactly 2 resulted from the need for money to buy drugs. (b) at most 3 resulted from the need to buy drugs. (a) Find the probability that among the next 5 theft cases reported in this district, exactly 2 resulted from the need for money to buy drugs. P(X=2)= (Round to three decimal places as needed.) (b) Find the probability that among the next 5 theft cases reported in this district, at most 3 resulted from the need to buy drugs. P(X≤3)= (Round to three decimal places as needed.)
