1.) 100 units are shipped,the probabilty that one is defective is .2, you select 12 at random, what is the probabilty 3 are defective?
\n" ); document.write( "---------------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Binomial Problem: n = 12 ; p = 0.2
\n" ); document.write( "P(x = 3) = 12C3(0.2)^3(0.8)^9 = binompdf(12,0.2,3) = 0.2362
\n" ); document.write( "================================================================
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "2.)A shipment has 20 bad and 80 good units, you pick 12 at random, what is the probabilty 3 are defective?
\n" ); document.write( "P(x = 3) is same as #1.
\n" ); document.write( "======================================================================
