A door-to-door salesman expects to make a sale 14% of the time when starting the day. But making a sale increases his enthusiasm so much that the probability of a sale to the next customer is 0.39. If he makes no sale, the probability for a sale to the next customer stays at 0.14. What is the probability that he will make at least two sales with his first three visits?
