Question: An auto manufacturer purchases starting mechanisms from an independent contractor. Every week, a quality control officer pulls one hundred starters out of the shipment from the contractor and inspects each. A starter is either defective or not, with no range in between. If two or fewer are defective, the total shipment of the week is accepted. Otherwise it is returned to the contractor. Further, it is known that overall the starter company has a 3.2% rate of production of defective products. What is the probability that the next shipment will be accepted?
