Answer:

probability that his sample will contain at least one damaged apple (P) = 0.7215

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Probability of damaged apples (p) = 12% = 0.12

number of samples (n) = 10

Consider,

x- number of apples damaged.

Using Binomial distribution formula:

P(x) = (nCx) (P)^x (1-p)^(n-x)

To find the probability that his sample will contain at least one damaged apple:

P(x≥1) = 1 - P(x<1)

          = 1 - P(x=0)

          = 1 - 10C_0 (0.12)^0 ( 1-0.12)^(10)

P(x≥1)  = 0.7215
