based on the recent data it is found that 5% of the out put has one or more defects . in spot checking some parts , inspector randomly selects two parts find the probabilities that
Sample space: D means defective; N means not defective
DD,DN,ND,NN
a. the first part is defect free::0.95*0.05 + 0.95*0.95 = 0.95
----------------------------------------------
b. the second part is defect free::same as above: 0.95
----------------------------------------------
c. both parts are defect free: 0.95^2 = 0.9025
-------------------------------------------------
d. one of the parts is acceptable::2(0.05*0.95) = 0.095
-------
e. at least one part is acceptable:: 1-(0.05)^2 = 0.9975
