The probability of a seed germination is 1\3. If three of the seeds are planted what is the probability that
A. None germinates
probability = %281+-+1%2F3%29%5E3 = highlight%288%2F27%29
B. At least one will germinate
Subtract the probability in part "A" from 1.
Answer: highlight%2819%2F27%29
C. Only one will germinate
probability = 3%281%2F3%29%282%2F3%29%5E2 = highlight%284%2F9%29
