d) In a row of 40 flowers, what is the probability that more than 13 will bloom early?
e) In a row of 40 flowers, what is the probability that between 8 and 13 (inclusive) will bloom early?
f) In a row of flowers, what is the probability that you will have to observe 5 flowers in order to see the first one that blooms early?
