Using the hypergeometric distribution, it is found that there is a 0.0273 = 2.73% probability that the third defective bulb is the fifth bulb tested.
In this problem, the bulbs are chosen without replacement, hence the <em>hypergeometric distribution</em> is used to solve this question.
<h3>What is the hypergeometric distribution formula?</h3>
The formula is:


The parameters are:
- x is the number of successes.
- N is the size of the population.
- n is the size of the sample.
- k is the total number of desired outcomes.
In this problem:
- There are 12 bulbs, hence N = 12.
- 3 are defective, hence k = 3.
The third defective bulb is the fifth bulb if:
- Two of the first 4 bulbs are defective, which is P(X = 2) when n = 4.
- The fifth is defective, with probability of 1/8, as of the eight remaining bulbs, one will be defective.
Hence:


0.2182 x 1/8 = 0.0273.
0.0273 = 2.73% probability that the third defective bulb is the fifth bulb tested.

Answer:so multiply 12*2=24 and 24*5=120 Is your answer .
Step-by-step explanation:
Final answer:
Since absolute values determine the distance between the number and the value whether the value is positive or negative. As distance is always positive.
Thus, |a| is always nonnegative, even though |a|=-a for negative values of a.
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1
It is said that |a| is always nonnegative even though even though |a|=-a for negative values of a.
Step 2
This is because by the definition of an absolute value, any real number inside an absolute value symbol || will always be positive.

oops! it's too hard!!
i think i should need to do first so that i could provide you correct answer of it!!
