Karolina [17]

Answer:

99.9973 %

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a binomial probability distribution.

Since the probability of satisfactory welds = 97% = 0.97 and the probability of defective welds = 3% = 0.03.

Since there are 3 welds and we require at least one being defective, our binomial probability is

P(x ≥ 1) = 1 - P(x ≤ 0) = 1 - P(0) = 1 - ³C₀(0.03)³(0.97)⁰ = 1 - 1 × ‭0.000027‬ × 1 = 1 - 0.000027 = 0.99997‬3 × 100% = 99.9973%
