In a book consisting of 600 pages, there are 60 typographical errors. The probability that a randomly chosen page will contain at most two errors, is

  1. A \(\frac{1}{5} \sqrt{e}\)
  2. B \(\frac{1}{e^{0.1}}\left(\frac{221}{200}\right)\)
  3. C \(\frac{1}{e^{0.1}}\left(\frac{111}{200}\right)\)
  4. D \(\frac{1}{5} e^{0.1}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(\frac{1}{e^{0.1}}\left(\frac{221}{200}\right)\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\begin{aligned} & \text { (b) We have, } \lambda=\frac{60}{600}=0.1 \\ & \therefore \quad P(X=x)=\frac{e^{-\lambda}(\lambda)^x}{x !}=\frac{e^{-0.1}(0.1)^x}{x !}\end{aligned}\)…
