Question 868930: If 10% of television sets produced by Hybrid Electrics have some form of defect, determine the probability that out of five (5) television sets chosen at random
(a) Only one will be defective. P(X=1)………………………………… [2]
(b) At most two will be defective. P (X ≤ 2) =…………………………… [2]
(c) More than three will be defective. P(X>3) =……………………………

Hi
p(def) = .10, n = 5
P(X=1) = binompdf(5, .10, 1)= .3281
P (X ≤ 2)= binomcdf(5, .10,2)= .9914
P(X>3) = 1 - binomcdf(5, .10,3)= .0005
