The probability that tulb produced by a ...

The probability that tulb produced by a factor will fuse after 150 days if used is `0.50.` What is the probability that out of 5 such balbs none will fuse after 150 days of use ?

A

`1-(19//20)^(5)`

B

`(19//20)^(5)`

C

`(3//4)^(5)`

D

`90(1//4)^(5)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

Here `p=19//20,q=1//20,n=5,r=5.` The required probability is
`=""^(5)C_(3)((19)/(20))^(5)((1)/(20))^(0)=((19)/(20))^(5)`
