A company (Company A) supplies microprocessors to a manufacturer (Company B) of electronic equipment. The microprocessors are supplied in batches of 50. Rather than test all microprocessors in a batch, company B selects 10 at random from a batch and tests these 10 selected. Suppose a particular batch has 6 defective microprocessors. Let X be the number of defective microprocessors in the random sample of 10 that company B tests. Then, X is hypergeometrically distributed with parameters N = n ,k = II
