Practicing Success
Ten eggs are drawn successively with replacement from a lot containing 10% defective eggs. The probability that there is at least one defective egg is |
\(\frac{10^{10}-9^{10}}{10^{10}}\) \(\frac{9^{10}-10^{10}}{10^{10}} \) \(\frac{10^9-9^{10}}{9^{10}} \) \(\frac{10^{10}+9^{10}}{10^{10}}\) |
\(\frac{10^{10}-9^{10}}{10^{10}}\) |
Probability of defective eggs =10% $P=\frac{10}{100}=\frac{1}{10}$ Let the (Probability of good eggs) = q $q=1-p=1-\frac{10}{100}=\frac{100-10}{100}=\frac{90}{100}=\frac{9}{10}$ (Probability of at least one egg defective out of 10) ⇒ p(1) + p(2) + p(3)+... $=[p(0)+p(1)+p(2)+...+p(10)−p(0)$ $=1-P(0)=1-(\frac{9}{10})^{10}⇒\frac{10^{10}-9^{10}}{10^{10}}$. So option 1 is correct. |
