Explanation / Answer

1)

no of components i.e n = 10

proability of each faling i.e p = 0.60

forlmula of Bionolial distribution P(X=r) = nCrpr(1-p)n-r

a)

probabilty that exactly six fails =  10C60.606(1-0.60)10-6 = 0.2508

b)

probabilty that atmost eight will fail = 1 - P(9) -P(10)

=  1- 10C90.609(1-0.60)10-9 -  10C100.6010(1-0.60)10-10

= 0.9536

c) none will fail = P(X=0) = 10C00.600(1-0.60)10 = 0.0001

d)

mean of normal approximation = np = 10*0.60 = 6

variance = 10*0.06*(1-0.60) = 2.4

standard devation = variance = 2.4 = 1.5492
