Vedclass · Answer

(B) Total oranges = $4 + 16 = 20$. Three oranges are drawn. The number of ways to draw $3$ oranges from $20$ is $C(20, 3) = \frac{20 	imes 19 	imes 18}{3 	imes 2 	imes 1} = 1140$.Let $X$ be the number of defective oranges. $X$ can take values $0, 1, 2, 3$.$P(X=0) = \frac{C(4,0) 	imes C(16,3)}{1140} = \frac{1 	imes 560}{1140} = \frac{560}{1140} = \frac{28}{57}$.$P(X=1) = \frac{C(4,1) 	imes C(16,2)}{1140} = \frac{4 	imes 120}{1140} = \frac{480}{1140} = \frac{24}{57} = \frac{8}{19}$.$P(X=2) = \frac{C(4,2) 	imes C(16,1)}{1140} = \frac{6 	imes 16}{1140} = \frac{96}{1140} = \frac{8}{95}$.$P(X=3) = \frac{C(4,3) 	imes C(16,0)}{1140} = \frac{4 	imes 1}{1140} = \frac{4}{1140} = \frac{1}{285}$.Comparing with the options,option $B$ matches these values.

$x_i$	$-2$	$-1$	$0$	$1$	$2$
$P(X = x_i)$	$0.2$	$0.5$	$0.15$	$0.25$	$0.1$

$X = x$	$-4$	$-2$	$0$	$2$	$4$	$6$	$8$	$10$
$F(X = x)$	$0.1$	$0.3$	$0.5$	$0.65$	$0.75$	$0.85$	$0.90$	$1$

Four defective oranges are accidentally mixed with sixteen good ones. Three oranges are drawn from the mixed lot. The probability distribution of defective oranges is
