Compound Probability
Compound probability can be defined as the probability of the two events which are independent. It can be defined as the multiplication of the probability of two events that are not dependent.
Tree diagram
Probability theory is a branch of mathematics that deals with the subject of probability. Although there are many different concepts of probability, probability theory expresses the definition mathematically through a series of axioms. Usually, these axi…
Conditional Probability
By definition, the term probability is expressed as a part of mathematics where the chance of an event that may either occur or not is evaluated and expressed in numerical terms. The range of the value within which probability can be expressed is between…

Expert Solution & Answer

Answer to Problem 27E

Number of computers with defects in a shipment of 15000 computers is 113 .

Explanation of Solution

Given information:

Manufacturers tests 12000 computers.

Computers that have defects 9 computers.

Calculation:

The question is related to probability of the event.

Given is related to the number of defectives items out of the total number of items is used to obtain the probability of a randomly chosen items being a defective one.

Thus probabilities are observed as,

  P (Defective)

  =91200=0.0075

Thus the required probability that the randomly selected item will be a defective one is 0.0075

Now the number of defective items hat might be present in observed total items of 15000 is get by,

Number of items calculated as,

  =15000×0.0075=112.5=113

Hence, Number of computers with defects in a shipment of 15000 computers is 113 .
