In a semiconductor manufacturing process, three wafers from a lot are tested. Each wafer is classified as pas or fail. Assume that the probability that a wafer passes the test is 0.6 and that wafers are independent. Determine the probability mass function of the number of wafers from a lot that pass the test. Round your answers to three decimal places (e.g. 98.765). P(X = 0) = i P(X = 1) = i P(X = 2) = i P(X = 3) = i
