Answer:
0.3
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Probability of growing into a healthy plant = probability of success (p) = 75% = 0.75
Number of seeds planted(n) = 9
Probability that exactly 2 don't grow is equivalent to having 7 that grows (9 - 2) = 7 = r
Using binomial distribution formula :
nCr * p^r * (1 - p)^(n-r)
9C7 * 0.75^7 * (1 - 0.75)^(9 - 7)
9C7 * 0.75^7 * 0.25^2
36 * 0.13348 * 0.0625
= 0.3003387
= 0.3
Hence, probability that exactly 2 don't grow is 0.3
