What is the probability that the inspector finds exactly two defective parts? parts 17

Explanation / Answer

Problem C:

Number of defective parts: 2

Number of non defective parts: 4

Total number of parts: 6

Number of ways of selecting 3 parts out of 6 is

C(6,3) = 20

(a)

Number of ways fo selecting 1 defective part and 2 non defective parts is

C(2,1)C(4,2) = 2 * 6 = 12

Therefore the probability of selecting 1 defective part is

P(exactly 1 defective part) = 12/20 = 0.6

(b)

Number of ways fo selecting 2 defective parts and 1 non defective parts is

C(2,2)C(4,1) = 4

Therefore the probability of selecting 1 nondefective part is

P(exactly 1 nondefective part) = 4/20 = 0.2

(c)

Number of ways fo selecting 2 defective parts and 1 non defective parts is

C(2,2)C(4,1) = 4

Therefore the probability of selecting 2 defective part is

P(exactly 2 defective parts) = 4/20 = 0.2
