(a) P( fifth one is bad) = P( first 4 are OK) * P(5th is bad)
= (0.98)^4 * 0.02 = 0.0184 or 1.84%
(b) this will be (0.98)^10 = 81.70%
These are fractions? Like 13/20 and 7/10? Is so the symbol would be 13/20 < 7/10 because 7/10 is a higher fraction than 13/20
Because it says it’s looking for the ESTIMATED sum. Round your answer to the nearest tenth, and that would be an estimated answer.
The answer is B.
I hope this helps. :)
