Question 923861: assuming you are looking at quality data from a production process. you have found that the probability of a good item is 0.9 and the probability of a bad item is 0.1. if you were to inspect 5 items, what is the probability that you would get all good items in that sample?

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
p(good) = .9, p(bad) = .1
n = 5
P(x = 5good) = (.9)^5 = .5905 0r 59.05% chance all five would be good
