Question 1162902: The manufacturer of a fertilizer guarantees that, with the aid of the fertilizer, 70% of planted seeds will germinate. Suppose the manufacturer is correct. If 7
seeds planted with the fertilizer are randomly selected, what is the probability that more than 5 of them germinate?
Carry your intermediate computations to at least four decimal places, and round your answer to two decimal places.

want to know probability that 6 and 7 will germinate
7 is 0.7^7=0.0824
6 is 7*0.7*6*0.3=0.2471
The sum is 0.3295 or 0.33
