During the breeding season of a population of wild birds, a scientist records the number of eggs hatched in each nest. Based on these data, he determines the probabilities for the number of eggs hatched per nest. These probabilities are shown in the table.

\begin{tabular}{|l|l|l|l|l|l|l|l|l|}
\hline Number of Eggs Hatched & 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & 5 & 6 & 7 & 8 \\
\hline Probability & 0.08 & 0.16 & 0.2 & 0.15 & 0.15 & 0.12 & 0.08 & 0.06 \\
\hline
\end{tabular}
