4. A company always sends letters by second class post unless they are marked first class. Over a long period of time it has been established that \(20 \%\) of letters to be posted are marked first class.
In a random selection of 10 letters to be posted, find the probability that the number marked first class is
- at least 3,
- fewer than 2.
One Monday morning there are only 12 first class stamps. Given that there are 70 letters to be posted that day,
- use a suitable approximation to find the probability that there are enough first class stamps.
- State an assumption about these 70 letters that is required in order to make the calculation in part (c) valid.
