In the manufacturing process for a certain jack
et, 82% have no defects, 14% have a minor defect an
d can be sold at an
outlet store and 4% have a major defect and are dis
carded or donated to charity. If 40 of these jacke
ts are selected at
random, what is the probability that at least 33 ha
ve no defects, at least 5 have a minor defect and a
t least 1 has a major
defect? (Again there are several cases to consider.)
.
Solution
Given p1=P(ND)=0.82; p2=P(Minor D)=0.14; p3=(M D)=0.04
n=40
we need Atleast 33 ND, 5 Minor D and 1 MD. This can be achieved from total 40 selected as follows
33 ND , 5Minor D, 2 MD or 33ND 6 Minor D, 1 MD or 34ND, 5 Minor D, 1 MD
Required probability is =P(33 ND , 5Minor D, 2 MD)+P( 33ND 6 Minor D, 1 MD ) +P( 34ND, 5 Minor D, 1 MD)
=0.04824+0.05627+0.05817=0.16268
