It has been determined that 5% of drivers checked at a road stop show traces of alcohol and 10% of drivers checked don't wear seat belts. In addition, it has been observed that two infractions are independent from one another. If an officer stops five drivers at random, then the probability that exactly two of the drivers have committed any of the two offenses is: O 0.1314 0.0232

A new automated production process averages 2.5 breakdowns per day. Because of the cost associated with a breakdown, management is concerned about the possibility of having three or more breakdowns during a day.
