A bin contains 78 light bulbs of which 9 are defective. If 3 light bulbs are randomly selected from the bin with replacement, find the probability that all the bulbs selected are good ones. Round to the nearest thousandth if necessary.

With replacement:

P(GGG)=[(78-9)/78]^3

P(GGG)=(23/26)^3

P(GGG)=12167/17576

P(GGG)≈0.692

Answer:

[tex] P(3 Good) = (\frac{69}{78})^3 =0.692[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we have a total os light bulbs 78 and 9 of them are defective, that means 78-9 =69 are not defective. We can find the probability that a buld is defective or no like this:

[tex]P(D) = \frac{9}{78}=0.115[/tex]

[tex]P(ND) = \frac{69}{78}=0.885[/tex]

And for this case we want to find the probability that all the 3 bulbs selected would be good one, since the experiment is with replacement we can assume independence between the events of obtain a non defective bulb and we can find the probability like this:

[tex] P(3 Good) = (\frac{69}{78})^3 =0.692[/tex]
