To solve the problem of finding the probability that there is at least one defective egg when drawing 10 eggs successively with replacement from a lot containing 10% defective eggs, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Problem We have a lot of eggs where 10% are defective. This means that the probability of selecting a defective egg (P) is 0.1 (or 10%), and the probability of selecting a non-defective egg (Q) is 0.9 (or 90%). ### Step 2: Define the Variables - Let N = 10 (the number of eggs drawn) - Let P = 0.1 (the probability of selecting a defective egg) ...
