A garden centre buys packets of seeds from two growers, Q and R. Of the packets in stock, \(60\%\) come from grower Q and \(40\%\) from grower R. Each seed from grower Q fails to germinate with probability \(0.15\), and each seed from grower R fails to germinate with probability \(0.08\), independently of the other seeds. Every packet contains \(12\) seeds.
A packet is chosen at random from the stock and all of its seeds are planted.
