In a box containing 100 apples, 10 are defective. The probability that in a sample of 6 apples, 3 are defective is
- A \(0.1548\)
- B \(0 \cdot 1458\)
- C \(0.01854\)
- D \(0.01458\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) \(0.01458\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\( p = \frac{10}{100} = 0.1 \) \( P(X=3) = \binom{6}{3} (0.1)^3 (0.9)^{6-3} \)
