A greenhouse is offering a sale on tulip bulbs because they have inadvertently mixed pink bulbs with red bulbs. If 40% of the bulbs are pink and 60% are red, what is the probability that at least one of the bulbs will be pink if 4 bulbs are purchased?

The probabilty of having at least one pink bulb if 4 bulbs are purchased is 13%.

Step-by-step explanation:

The proportion of pink bulbs is p=0.4.

If X is the amount of pink bulbs in a group of 4 bulbs, we can model this as a binomial distribution problem.

The probability that at least one of the bulbs is pink is P(X≥1)

The probabilty of having at least one pink bulb if 4 bulbs are purchased is 13%.
