Answer:
Incomplete question, but I gave a primer on the hypergeometric distribution, which is used to solve this question, so just the formula has to be applied to find the desired probabilities.
Step-by-step explanation:
The resistors are chosen without replacement, which means that the hypergeometric distribution is used to solve this question.
Hypergeometric distribution:
The probability of x successes is given by the following formula:
In which:
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.
Combinations formula:
is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.
In this question:
12 resistors, which means that
3 defective, which means that
4 are selected, which means that
To find an specific probability, that is, of x defectives:
