A seed has a 90% chance of growing into a healthy plant. If 9 seeds are planted, what is the probability that exactly 4 don't grow? A pharmaceutical company receives large shipments of ibuprofen tablets and uses this acceptance sampling plan: randomly select and test 22 tablets, then accept the whole batch if there is at most one that doesn’t meet the required specifications. If a particular shipment of thousands of ibuprofen tablets actually has a 6% rate of defects, what is the probability that this whole shipment will be accepted? (Report answer as a decimal value accurate to four decimal places.) P(accept shipment) =

A small river is found to be polluted due to the chemical waste from two major industries, A and B. Due to the strict standards enforced by the EPA, the probability of controlling the pollutions from A and B are 0.7 and 0.85, respectively, in the next two years. It is estimated that, if only one of the industries complies with the strict standards of EPA, there is a 75 percent probability of controlling the pollution in the river to an acceptable level. (a) Find the probability of controlling the pollution in the river in the next two years. (b) If the pollution in the river is not controlled in the next two years, what is the probability that it is caused entirely by industry A?
As a warehouse manager, it is your responsibility to inspect a large shipment of componets for defects.
