Answer:

The correct response will be "0.01913".

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the question,

p - P(70 years or older)

= 0.18

n = 4

X = no. of individuals who are older than 70 years

Now,

∴ [tex]P(X=r)=n_C_r \ p^r(1-p)^{n-r}[/tex]

∴ [tex]P(X=3)=4_C_3(0.18)^3(1-0.18)^{4-3}[/tex]

                   [tex]=4\times (0.18)^3(0.82)^1[/tex]

                   [tex]=0.01913[/tex]
