Question 895893: A bin holds 20 components, 4 in which are defective. An engineer selects 5 components to test; the components are selected without replacement. Find the probability that at least one of the components is defective? Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! A bin holds 20 components, 4 in which are defective. An engineer selects 5 components to test; the components are selected without replacement. Find the probability that at least one of the components is defective?
---------------------
P(at least one defective) = 1 - P(all are good) = 1 - [16C4/20C4]
= 1 - 0.3756
