Exercise 3.5.4
Consider a population of the fruit-fly Drosophila melanogaster in which 30% of the individuals are black because of a mutation, while 70% of the individuals have the normal gray body color. Suppose three flies are chosen at random from the population; let Y denote the number of black flies out of the three. Then the probability distribution for Y is given by the following table:
