Question

20. PLEASE ANSWER B, C

Each of 12 refrigerators of a certain type has been returned to a distributor because of an audible, high-pitched, oscillating noise when the refrigerators are running. Suppose that 9 of these refrigerators have a defective compressor and the other 3 have less serious problems. If the refrigerators are examined in random order, let X be the number among the first 8 examined that have a defective compressor. (a) Calculate PX-6) and PX s 6). (Round your answers to four decimal places.) P(X-6)- P(X ≤ 6)- (b) Determine the probability that X exceeds its mean value by more than 1 standard deviation. (Round your answer to four decimal places.) (c) Consider a large shipment of 600 refrigerators, of which 60 have defective compressors.
