Question
The quality-control inspector of a production plant will reject a batch of syringes if two or more defective syringes are found in a random sample of ten syringes taken from the batch. Suppose the batch contains 1% defective syringes.
 
(a)
Make a histogram showing the probabilities of 
r = 0, 1, 2, 3,   ,
 9 and 10 defective syringes in a random sample of ten syringes.
A histogram has a horizontal axis labeled r with values from 0 to 10 and a vertical axis labeled P(r) with values from 0 to 1. The histogram has 11 bars. Each bar is associated with a label and an approximate value as listed below.
  • 0: 0.31
  • 1: 0.39
  • 2: 0.21
  • 3: 0.07
  • 4: 0.02
  • 5: 0
  • 6: 0
  • 7: 0
  • 8: 0
  • 9: 0
  • 10: 0
