There
are
17
broken
light
bulbs
in
a
box
of
100
light
bulbs.
A
random
sample
of
3
light
bulbs
is
chosen
without
replacement.
a) How
many
ways
are
there
to
choose
the
sample?
b)
How
many
samples
contain
no
broken
light
bulbs?
c)
What
is
the
probability
that
the
sample
contains
no
broken
light
bulbs?
d)
How
many
ways
to
choose
a
sample
that
contains
exactly
1
broken
light
bulb?
e)
What
is
the
probability
that
the

An
agricultural
research
establishment
grows
vegetables
and
grade
each
one
as
either
good
or
bad
for
taste,
good
or
bad
for
its
size,
and
good
or
bad
for
its
appearance.
Overall,
78%
of
the
vegetables
have
a
good
taste.
However,
only
69%
of
the
vegetables
have
both
a
good
taste
and
a
good
size.
Also,
5%
of
the
vegetables
have
a
good
taste
and
a
good
appearance,
but
a
bad
size.
Finally,
84%
of
the
vegetables
have
either
a
good
size
or
a
good
appearance.
a) if
a
vegetable
has
a
good
taste,
what
is
the
probability
that
it
also
has
a
good
size?
b) if
a
vegetable
has
a
bad
size
and
a
bad
appearance,
what
is
the
probability
that
it
has
a
good
taste?

A
batch
of
500
containers
for
frozen
orange
juice
contains
5
that
are
defective.
Two
are
selected
at
random,
without
replacement,
from
the
batch.
Let
A
and
B
denote
that
the
first
and
second
selected
is
defective
respectively,
a) are
A
and
B
independent
events?
b)
if
the
sampling
were
done
with
replacement,
would
A
and
B
be
independent?

Everyday
(Mon

a
batch
of
components
sent
by
a
first
supplier
arrives
at
certain
inspection
facility.
Two
days
a
week,
a
batch
also
arrives
from
a
second
supplier.
Eighty
percent
of
all
batches
from
supplier

inspection,
and
90%

On
a

that
two
batches
pass

The
probability
is
1%
that
an
electrical
connector
that
is
kept
dry
fails
during
the
warranty
period
of
a
portable
computer.
If
the
connector
is
ever
wet,
the
probability
of
a
failure
during
the
warranty
period
is
5%.
If
90%
of
the
connectors
are
kept
dry
and
10%
are
wet,
what
proportion
of
connectors
fail
during
the
warranty
period?

Computer
keyboard
failures
are
due
to
faulty
electrical
connects
(12%)
or
mechanical
defects
(88%).
Mechanical
defects
are
related
to
loose
keys
(27%)
or
improper
assembly
(73%).
Electrical
connect
defects
are
caused
by
defective
wires
(35%),
improper
connections
(13%)
or
poorly
welded
wires
(52%).
Find
the
probability,
a) that
a
failure
is
due
to
loose
keys.
b) that
a
failure
is
due
to
improperly
connected
or
poorly

During
a
space
shot,
the
primary
computer
system
is
backed
up
by
two
secondary
systems.
They
operate
independently
of
one
another,
and
each
is
90%
reliable.
What
is
the
probability
that
all
three
systems
will
be
operable
at
the
