15. Suppose a box of 30 light bulbs contains 4 defective ones. If 5 bulbs are to be removed out of the box.
1) What is the probability that all 5 are good?

2) What is the probability that at most two bulbs are defective?

3) What is the probability that at least one bulb is defective?

1) Probability that all five are good = 0.46

2) P(at most 2 defective) = 0.99

3) Pr(at least 1 defective) = 0.54

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of bulbs = 30

Number of defective bulbs = 4

Number of good bulbs = 30 - 4 = 26

Number of ways of selecting 5 bulbs from 30 bulbs =

ways

Number of ways of selecting 5 good bulbs  from 26 bulbs =

ways

Probability that all five are good = 65780/142506

Probability that all five are good = 0.46

2) probability that at most two bulbs are defective = Pr(no defective) + Pr(1 defective) + Pr(2 defective)

Pr(no defective) has been calculated above = 0.46

Pr(1 defective) =

Pr(1 defective) = (14950*4)/142506

Pr(1 defective) =0.42

Pr(2 defective) =  

Pr(2 defective) = (2600 *6)/142506

Pr(2 defective) = 0.11

P(at most 2 defective) = 0.46 + 0.42 + 0.11

P(at most 2 defective) = 0.99

3) Probability that at least one bulb is defective = Pr(1 defective) +  Pr(2 defective) +  Pr(3 defective) +  Pr(4 defective)

Pr(1 defective) =0.42

Pr(2 defective) = 0.11

Pr(3 defective) =  

Pr(3 defective) = 0.009

Pr(4 defective) =  

Pr(4 defective) = 0.00018

Pr(at least 1 defective) = 0.42 + 0.11 + 0.009 + 0.00018

Pr(at least 1 defective) = 0.54
