1. **Problem:** Let $X$ be binomial with $n=25$, $p=0.2$. Find $P(X < \mu_x - 2\sigma_x)$.
2. **Formulas:** For binomial, $\mu_x = np$, $\sigma_x = \sqrt{np(1-p)}$.
3. **Calculate mean and std dev:**
$\mu_x = 25 \times 0.2 = 5$
$\sigma_x = \sqrt{25 \times 0.2 \times 0.8} = \sqrt{4} = 2$
4. **Find cutoff:**
$\mu_x - 2\sigma_x = 5 - 2 \times 2 = 1$
5. **Calculate probability:**
$P(X < 1) = P(X \leq 0)$ since $X$ is discrete.
6. **Evaluate:**
$P(X=0) = (1-p)^n = 0.8^{25} \approx 0.0032$
**Answer:** $P(X < \mu_x - 2\sigma_x) \approx 0.0032$
