If a seed is planted, it has a 75% chance of growing into a
healthy plant.
If 11 seeds are planted, what is the probability that exactly 1
doesn't grow?
Given that the probability of growing a seed into a healthy plant is p=0.75
ie
Implies
q: is the probability of seed not growing into plant
Let X be the number of seed not grown into the healthy plan.
n=11 be the number of seed planted.
Therefore
The probability of exactly one seed doesn't grow is given by
Therefore the probability that exactly one seed doesn't grow is 0.1551
