The probability that you will have exactly 4 failures in one hour = 0.0112

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of pumps = 10

Probability of failure for the pumps in an hour = 0.10

Probability required is the probability that 4 out of 10 pumps fail in an hour.

This is a binomial distribution problem

Binomial distribution function is represented by

P(X = x) = ⁿCₓ pˣ qⁿ⁻ˣ

n = total number of sample spaces = total number of pumps

x = Number of successes required = in this case, number of failure required = 4

p = probability of success = probability that a pump actually fails = 0.1

q = probability of failure = probability that a pump doesn't fail = 0.9

The wordings of the question seem to counter the definition of parameters in the formula, but it is the understanding that is key.

P(X=4) = ¹⁰C₄ (0.1)⁴ (0.9)¹⁰⁻⁴ = 0.011160261 = 0.0112
