Five defective bolts are accidently mixed with twenty good ones. If four bolts are drawn at random from this lot, find the probability distribution of the number of defective bolts.
उत्तर
Let X denote the number of defective bolts in a sample of 4 bolts drawn from a bag containing 5 defective bolts and 20 good bolts. Then, X can take the values 0, 1, 2, 3 and 4.
Now,
\[P\left( X = 0 \right)\]
\[ = P\left( \text{ no defective bolts } \right)\]
\[ = \frac{{}^{20} C_4}{{}^{25} C_4}\]
\[ = \frac{4845}{12650}\]
\[ = \frac{969}{2530}\]
\[P\left( X = 1 \right)\]
\[ = P\left( 1 \text{ defective bolt } \right)\]
\[ = \frac{{}^5 C_1 \times^{20} C_3}{{}^{25} C_4}\]
\[ = \frac{5700}{12650}\]
\[ = \frac{114}{253}\]
\[P\left( X = 2 \right)\]
\[ = P\left( 2 \text{ defective bolts } \right)\]
\[ = \frac{{}^5 C_2 \times^{20} C_2}{{}^{25} C_4}\]
\[ = \frac{1900}{12650}\]
\[ = \frac{38}{253}\]
\[P\left( X = 3 \right)\]
\[ = P\left( 3 \text{ defective bolts }\right)\]
\[ = \frac{{}^5 C_3 \times^{20} C_1}{{}^{25} C_4}\]
\[ = \frac{200}{12650}\]
\[ = \frac{4}{253}\]
\[P\left( X = 4 \right)\]
\[ = P\left( 4 \text{ defective bolts } \right)\]
\[ = \frac{{}^5 C_4}{{}^{25} C_4}\]
\[ = \frac{5}{12650}\]
\[ = \frac{1}{2530}\]
Thus, the probability distribution of X is given by
| X | P(X) |
| 0 |
\[\frac{969}{2530}\]
|
| 1 |
\[\frac{114}{253}\]
|
| 2 |
\[\frac{38}{253}\]
|
| 3 |
\[\frac{4}{253}\]
|
| 4 |
\[\frac{1}{2530}\]

The probability that a bomb will hit the target is 0.8. Complete the following activity to find, the probability that, out of 5 bombs exactly 2 will miss the target.
Solution: Here, n = 5, X =number of bombs that hit the target
p = probability that bomb will hit the target = `square`
∴ q = 1 - p = `square`
Here, `X∼B(5,4/5)`
∴ P(X = x) = `""^"n""C"_x"P"^x"q"^("n" - x) = square`
P[Exactly 2 bombs will miss the target] = P[Exactly 3 bombs will hit the target]
= P(X = 3)
=`""^5"C"_3(4/5)^3(1/5)^2=10(4/5)^3(1/5)^2`
∴ P(X = 3) = `square`
