If 25% of the parts produced by a machine are defective (p = 0.25), 5 from the track; a) What are the chances that they are not all at fault? b) What is the probability that at most two of them are defective?
Suppose you have just received a shipment of 28 modems. Although you don't know this, 4 of the modems are defective. To determine whether you will accept the shipment, you randomly select 9 modems and test them. If all 9 modems work, you accept the shipment. Otherwise, the shipment is rejected. What is the probability of accepting the shipment? The probability of accepting the shipment is (Round to four decimal places as needed.)

Suppose that the probability an archer will hit a target is 0.80 and that each shot is independent. If the archer shoots 6 times, what is the probability she hits the target at least 5 times? (Round your answer to three decimal places.)
FInd the expected number of infected ducks in a sample of 5 ducks if the probability of an infected duck is .3 and the ducks are considered to be independent.
A recent study shows that babies who weigh less than 5.5 pounds at birth are 40% more likely to develop high blood pressure as adults. If 7 babies who weighed less than 5.5 pounds at birth are selected at random, find the probability that: a) At most 2 of these babies will develop high blood pressure as adults. b) At least one of these babies will develop high blood pressure as adults.
Find the expected number of infected ducks in a sample of 5 ducks if the probability of an infected duck is 0.3 and the ducks can be considered independent.
Assume that when adults with smartphones are randomly selected, 55% use them in meetings or classes. If 11 adult smartphone users are randomly selected, find the probability that fewer than 4 of them use their smartphones in meetings or classes. The probability is (Type an integer or decimal rounded to four decimal places as needed.)
