### 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?
