A factory bought a new machine. It is not configured well yet, so the probability of defects is 0.05. Estimate the probability that there are at most 2 spoiled details in the random sample of 20.

    P (x<2) = 0.55

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Using poison binomial distribution

    For pois (landa)

    N=20

    P=0.05

    X=2

    Now we will use (λ) which is the parameter of poisson distribution

    (λ) = np=0.05*20=1

    Now since we want since probability of getting at most 2 spoiled

    P (x>2) = 1 - P (x<2) = 1 (p (x=2) + p (x=1) + p (x=0)

    e^ - (λ) λ^k/

    k!

    So therefore λ=1

    (e-1 1^2/2!) + (e-1 1^1/1!) + (e-1 1^0/0!)

    Equals 0.18+0.37+0=0.55

    Pr (at most 2 are defective) = 0.38

    Step-by-step explanation:

    probability of defective = 0.05

    probability of not defective = 1 - 0.05 = 0.95

    Pr (at most 2 are defective) = pr (0 defective) + pr (1 defective) + pr (2defective)

    pr (0 defective) = (0.05^0) * (0.95^20) = 0.36

    pr (1 defective) = (0.05^1) * (0.95^19) = 0.019

    pr (2 defective) = (0.05^2) * (0.95^18) = 0.0025 * 0.397 = 0.00099

    Pr (at most 2 are defective) = 0.36 + 0.019 + 0.00099

    Pr (at most 2 are defective) = 0.37999 = 0.38
