Question

Transcribed Image Text:### Problem 12: Bolt Length Specification
Of the bolts manufactured for a specific application, we have the following distribution regarding their length:
- **85%** meet the length specification and can be used immediately.
- **10%** are too long but can be used after trimming.
- **5%** are too short and must be discarded.
From this batch, **eight bolts** are selected at random. Analyze the probabilities for the following scenarios:
**a.** What is the probability that one or more bolts are too short?
**b.** What is the probability that seven or more bolts are not too short?
**c.** What is the probability that more than three bolts are either too long or too short?
**d.** What is the probability that exactly six bolts are either too long or too short?
