Question 1131882: Eight peas are generated from parents having the green/yellow pair of genes, so there is a 0.75 probability that an individual pea will have a green pod. Find the probability that among the 8 offspring peas, at least 7 have green pods. Is it unusual to get at least 7 peas with green pods when 8 offspring peas are generated? Why or why not?
