Solved Step by Step With Explanation- Acceptance Probability for Aspirin

Answer

P(X ≤ k) is the probability of having k or fewer defective tablets.

n is the number of trials (57 tablets tested).

P(X ≤ 1) = C(57, 0) * (0.06^0) * (0.94^57) + C(57, 1) * (0.06^1) * (0.94^56)

Now, let's calculate these probabilities:

This will give you the probability that the whole shipment will be accepted. It's important to note that the probability of acceptance is relatively low because the acceptance criteria are strict (only one or zero defective tablets are allowed).

The probability will be a small number rounded to four decimal places.
