An electronics company manufactures batches of n circuit boards. Before a batch is approved for shipment,
m boards are randomly selected from the batch and tested. The batch is rejected if more than d boards in
the sample are found to be faulty.
a) A batch actually contains six faulty circuit boards. Find the probability that the batch is rejected when
n = 20, m = 5, and d = 1.
b) A batch actually contains nine faulty circuit boards. Find the probability that the batch is rejected when
n = 30, m = 10, and d = 1.
