Answer:

0.2669~0.267

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Thirty percent of all telephones of a certain type are submitted for service while under warranty.

Let x be the no of units being replaced out of 10 units purchased by a company under warranty

We have X has two outcomes either replaced or not.  Also each unit is independent of the other

P(each unit fails and requires replaement ) = p =0.3

q =0.7

the probability that exactly three will end up being replaced under warranty

=P(X=3)

= [tex]10C3(0.3)^3(0.7)^7\\=0.2669[/tex]~0.267
