When circuit boards used in the manufacture of compact disc players are tested, the long-run percentage of defectives is 10%. Let X
= the number of defective boards in a random sample of size n = 20, so X ~ Bin(20, 0.1). (Round your probabilities to three decimal
places.)

Expert Solution
Step 1

It is given that the random variable X that is the number of defective boards in a random sample of size n = 20 i.e,

X ~ Bin(20, 0.1)
