If a seed is planted, it has a 75% chance of growing into a healthy plant. If 6 seeds are planted, what is the probability that exactly 1 doesn't grow?

Answer 1

The plants growing is assumed to be independent of the other plants. This will result in a binomial distribution of 5 positives out of 6:

₆C₅p⁵(1-p)¹ where the combination of 6 things 5 at a time is 6 and p = .75
