Question 261324: In a packet of seeds, each has a .84 chance of germinating. Harold will plant 2 seeds.
Determine the probability of the following
a. Both seeds germinate
b. Neither seed germinate
c. at least one seed germinated Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! In a packet of seeds, each has a .84 chance of germinating. Harold will plant 2 seeds.
Determine the probability of the following
a. Both seeds germinate: (0.84)^2
---
b. Neither seed germinate: (0.16)^2
----
c. at least one seed germinated = 1 - P(none germinate) = 1-(0.16)^2
= 0.9744
