Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the triangle is right with hypotenuse QR
Use Pythagoras' identity to solve for QR
The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other two sides, that is
QR² = 8² + (8 )²
= 64 + 192
= 256 ( take the square root of both sides )
QR = = 16
Using the hypergeometric distribution, it is found that there is a 0.0273 = 2.73% probability that the third defective bulb is the fifth bulb tested.
In this problem, the bulbs are chosen without replacement, hence the <em>hypergeometric distribution</em> is used to solve this question.
<h3>What is the hypergeometric distribution formula?</h3>The formula is:
The parameters are:
- x is the number of successes.
- N is the size of the population.
- n is the size of the sample.
- k is the total number of desired outcomes.
In this problem:
- There are 12 bulbs, hence N = 12.
- 3 are defective, hence k = 3.
The third defective bulb is the fifth bulb if:
- Two of the first 4 bulbs are defective, which is P(X = 2) when n = 4.
- The fifth is defective, with probability of 1/8, as of the eight remaining bulbs, one will be defective.
Hence:
0.2182 x 1/8 = 0.0273.
0.0273 = 2.73% probability that the third defective bulb is the fifth bulb tested.
