Answer:
The expected value for the number of inspections until a defective unit is found 17.
Step-by-step explanation:
Percentage of defective microchips = 6%
Let the total number of inspection = x
number of defective microchip = 1
As we know
1/x = 6%
1/x = 0.06
x = 1/ 0.06
x = 16.67 inspections
x = 17 ( rounded off to nearest whole number )
17 inspection is done until the defective microchip is found.

Step-by-step explanation:
Given that transitor has a 2% defective rate, need to calculate the probability that the 10th transistor produced is the first with a defect.
The probability function is p(x=k) = (1-p)^(n-1) * p
p = (1-defective rate)^(n-1) * defective rate; n=10
p = (1-0.02)^9 * 0.02 = 0.98^9 * 0.02 = 0.01666
