A box contains ( 100 ) bulbs, out of which ( 10 ) are defective. A sample of ( 5 ) bulbs is drawn. The probability that none is defective is
Options
- A( ( 1 10 )⁵ )
- B( ( 1 2 )⁵ )
- C( 9 10 )
- D( ( 9 10 )⁵ )
Correct answer
D. ( ( 9 10 )⁵ )
Step-by-step solution
Given that, total number of bulbs are 100 . Defective bulbs are 10 . So, p= 10 100 =0.1, q=0.9, n=5 Therefore p(x)= 5 x (p)^ x (q)^ 5-x p(0)= 5 0 (0.1)⁰(0.9)⁵= ( 9 10 )⁵
