Question: The probability that a bulb produced by a factory will fuse after 150 days of use is 0.05. What is the probability that out of 5 such bulbs none will fuse after 150 days of use

Options:

A) $ 1-{{( \frac{19}{20} )}^{5}} $

B) $ {{( \frac{19}{20} )}^{5}} $

C) $ {{( \frac{3}{4} )}^{5}} $

D) $ 90,{{( \frac{1}{4} )}^{5}} $

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: B

Solution:

  •         Here  $ p=\frac{19}{20},\,q=\frac{1}{20},\,n=5,\,r=5 $                  The required probability  $ ={}^{5}C_5{{( \frac{19}{20} )}^{5}}.{{( \frac{1}{20} )}^{0}}={{( \frac{19}{20} )}^{5}}. $
