A producer of a certain type of electronic component ships to suppliers in lots of fifty. Suppose that 50% of all such lots contain no defective components, 40 % contain 1 defective component per lot, and 10% contain 2 defective components per lot. A lot is selected and two components from the lot are randomly selected and tested and neither is defective. What is the probability that zero defective components exist in the lot?
