Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem of calculating the probability that out of 5 pens drawn one by one with replacement, at most 2 are defective, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Define the Problem Let \( X \) be the random variable representing the number of defective pens drawn in 5 trials. We need to find the probability \( P(X \leq 2) \). ### Step 2: Identify the Parameters - Total number of pens = 20 - Number of defective pens = 2 ...
