Keith's florists has 15 delivery trucks, used mainly to deliver flowers and flower arrangements in the greenville, south carolina, area. of these 15 trucks, 5 have brake problems. a sample of 4 trucks is randomly selected. what is the probability that 2 of those tested have defective brakes?

Hence, the probability is:

0.296

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be solved with the help of the binomial probability as:

where n denote the quantity which are chosen.

r denote the quantity whose probability is to be determined or success.

and p denote the probability of success.

with n=4 since 4 trucks are randomly selected.

p=5/15=1/3 ( As 5 have brake problems out of total 15 trucks)

1-p=10/15=2/3

r=2 ( since we are asked to find the probability that 2 of those tested have defective brakes)

Hence, the probability is:

Hence, the probability is:

0.296
