Answer:

The probability that it contains no flaws=0.585

Step-by-step explanation:

Flaws in a carpet tend to occur randomly and independently at a rate of one every 270 square feet.

One = 270 ft²

8*14= 112 ft²

Probability of containing flaws

So if 270 ft² = 1

112 ft² = 112/270

112ft² = 0.415

The probability that it contains no flaws= 1- probability that it contains

The probability that it contains no flaws= 1-0.415

The probability that it contains no flaws=0.585
