Each day, a random sample of 10 items is selected from the production line and tested by a quality control technician. A item can be in good condition or defective, and the probability that an item is defective is 0.05. You know by experience that the technician records the result of the test on an item correctly 80% of the time. Let X be the number of items that were recorded as defective by the technician (in the sample of 10 tested items). (a) Find the probability P(X= 1). (b) If the technician recorded one defective item in the sample, what is the conditional probability that there was no defective item in the sample?arrow_forward
