p=0.8765

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the following variables be represented as below:

Total Set,t=17

Def,d=3

Not Def,n=14

Purchases,p=8

The number of ways the hotel can receive at least one defective set in a purchase of 8 sets is calculated using the combination:-

So the proability of getting at least one defective unit is 0.8765

step-by-step explanation:
