What is the probability that no more than 6 pieces are defective? What is the probability that 0 pieces are defective? \n" ); document.write( "----- \n" ); document.write( "Binomial Problem with n = 20 and p(defective) = 1/40 \n" ); document.write( "---- \n" ); document.write( "P(0<= x <= 6) = binomcdf(20,1/40,6) = 0.9999 \n" ); document.write( "---- \n" ); document.write( "P(x = 0) = 20C0(1/40)^0*(39/40)^20 = (39/40)^20 = 0.6027 \n" ); document.write( "=============================================== \n" ); document.write( "Cheers, \n" ); document.write( "Stan H. \n" ); document.write( "============= \n" ); document.write( " |
