A company producing fine crystal goblets has, in the past, experienced a defect rate of 10% in its goblets. Such goblets are designated as "seconds". Assume defective goblets are independent. a) With what probability will there be one "second" among six randomly selected goblets? b) with what probability will there be at least four "seconds" among twelve randomly selected goblets? c) What is the expected number of "seconds" among 50 goblets? What is the associated variance? Hint: Binomial Distribution
