A box of parts contains 8 good items and 2 defective items I
A box of parts contains 8 good items and 2 defective items. If 2 are selected at random with
replacement, - that is, the first item is replaced before the second is drawn - find the
probability that the first is good and the second is defective.
Solution
Here,
P(good) = 8/10 = 0.8
P(defective) = 2/10 = 0.2
Thus,
P(good then defective) = 0.8*0.2 = 0.16 [answer]
