If 2% of the auto tires manufactured by a company are defective and 2 tires are randomly selected from an entire week’s production, find the probability that neither is defective (state your probability as a decimal carried out to the fourth place).
----------
Binomial Problem with n = 2 and p(defect) = 0.02 and p(not defect) = 0.98
--------
P(not AND not) = 0.98^2 = 0.9604
