A company takes out an insurance policy to cover accidents that occur at its manufacturing plant. The probability that one or more accidents will occur during any given month is 0.60. The numbers of accidents that occur in different months are mutually independent.

![P(k\geq 4)=1-P(k\leq 3)\\=1-\sum_{k=0}^{3}\left(\begin{array}{ccc}3+k\\k\end{array}\right)(0.60)^4(0.40)^k\\=1-(0.60)^4 \left[\left(\begin{array}{ccc}3\\0\end{array}\right)(0.40)^0+\left(\begin{array}{ccc}4\\1\end{array}\right)(0.40)^1+\left(\begin{array}{ccc}5\\2\end{array}\right)(0.40)^2+\left(\begin{array}{ccc}6\\3\end{array}\right)(0.40)^3\right]\\=1-(0.60)^4 \left[ 1+1.6+1.6+1.28\right]\\=1-(0.60)^4[5.48]\\=0.289792](/tpl/images/0668/0933/a25e8.png)
