Probability and binomial distributions 20 point value
Acme plumbing supply just received a shipment of 5,000 stainless steel valves, but 50 regular steel valves were also sent. There is no way to tell the difference between the valves. A customer orders 5 stainless steel valves . What is the probability that one or more will be regular steel? What distribution will be used? What are the parameters? Represent the question as a probability statement? Calculate the probability?
