Algebra.Com's Answer #293470 by stanbon(75887)![]() ![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! a machine is producing parts that on average a 0.5 probability of being defective. if a random sample of 5 parts is selected and each part is tested, find the fallowing probabilities \n" ); document.write( "--- \n" ); document.write( "Probability Problems with n = 5 and p = 1/2: \n" ); document.write( "----------------------- \n" ); document.write( "a) getting exactly 1 defective part? \n" ); document.write( "P(x = 1) = 5C1*(1/2)(1/2)4 = 5/32 \n" ); document.write( "-------------------------------------------- \n" ); document.write( "b)getting no defective part? \n" ); document.write( "P(x = 0) = 5C0(1/2)^0(1/2)^5 = (1/2)^5 = 1/32 \n" ); document.write( "-------------------------------------------- \n" ); document.write( "c) getting at most 1 defective part? \n" ); document.write( "P(x = 0 or 1) = 1/32 + 5/32 = 6/32 \n" ); document.write( "--------------------------------------------- \n" ); document.write( "d) getting atleast 1 defective part e) getting 5 defective parts? \n" ); document.write( "P(1<= x <=5) = 1 - P(x = 0) = 1-(1/32) = 31/32 \n" ); document.write( "================================================ \n" ); document.write( "Cheers, \n" ); document.write( "Stan H. \n" ); document.write( "============ \n" ); document.write( " |
