Math Problem Statement
A lot of 50 items has 40 good items and 10 bad items. 1 (a) Suppose we test five samples from the lot, with replacement. Let X be the number of defective items in the sample. Find P[X = k]. (b) Suppose we test five samples from the lot, without replacement. Let Y be the number of defective items in the sample. Find P[Y = k].
Solution
Let's tackle the problem step by step. We'll address part (a) first, where the sampling is done with replacement, and then move on to part (b), where the sampling is done without replacement.
Part (a): Sampling with Replacement
Let be the number of defective items in the sample when we test five items with replacement.
Given:
- Total items = 50
- Good items = 40
- Bad (def
