Felix states that he is able to distinguish a freshly ground coffee blend from an ordinary supermarket coffee. One of his friends asks him to taste 10 cups of coffee and tell him which coffee he has tasted. Suppose that Felix has actually no clue about coffee and simply guesses the brand. What is the probability of at least 8 correct guesses?
