The student government claims that 85% of all students favor an increase in student fees to buy indoor potted plants for the classrooms. A random sample of 12 students produced 2 in favor of the project. (a) What is the probability that 2 or fewer in the sample will favor the project, assuming the student government's claim is correct? (Use 3 decimal places.)
