You can put this solution on YOUR website! A box contains 12 transistors , 5 of which were defective. If 5 are selected at random, find the probability that.
Binomial Problem with n = 5 and p(defect) = 5/12 ; p(not defect) = 7/12
---------------------
A: P(All are defective) = (5/12)^5
B: None are defective = (7/12)^5
