A regimen of a daily dose of vitamin C was tested to determine its effectiveness in preventing the common cold. Ten people who were following the prescribed regimen were observed for period of I year. Eight survived the winter without a cold. Suppose the probability o surviving the winter without a cold is 0.5 when the vitamin C regimen is not followed. 1. What is the probability of observing eight or more survivors, given that the regimen is ineffective in increasing resistance to colds?
