Acompany purchases shipments of machine components and uses this acceptance sampling plan: randomly select and test 26 components and accept the whole batch if there are fewer than 3 defectives. if a particular shipment of thousands of components actually has a 6% rate of defects, what is the probability that this whole shipment will be accepted?

0.7973

Explanation:

Binomial probability formula :-

, where P(x) is the probability of getting success in x trials , p is the probability of success in one trial and n is the number of trials.

Given : The probability of getting a defect components :

If randomly select and test 26 components , then the probability that this whole shipment will be accepted will be :-

Hence, the  probability that this whole shipment will be accepted = 0.7973
