Algebra.Com's Answer #399674 by stanbon(75887)![]() ![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! If two percent of electric bulbs manufactured are defective,find the probability that in a sample of 200 bulbs less than 2 bulbs are defective. \n" ); document.write( "-------- \n" ); document.write( "Binomial Problem with n = 200 and p(defect) = 0.02 \n" ); document.write( "P(0<= x <=1) = P(x = 0) + P(x = 1) \n" ); document.write( "= 200C0*0.02^0*0.98^200 + 200C1*0.02*0.98^199 = 1*1*0.01759 + 200*0.02*0.0179 \n" ); document.write( "= 0.01759 + 0.0718 = 0.064 \n" ); document.write( "--- \n" ); document.write( "OR, using a TI-84 calculator, you would get: \n" ); document.write( "P(0<= x <=1) = binomcdf(200,0.02,1) = 0.0894 \n" ); document.write( "================== \n" ); document.write( "Cheers, \n" ); document.write( "Stan H. \n" ); document.write( "================= \n" ); document.write( " |
