Hypergeometric Distribution (Optional) · Try It 3
A palette has 200 milk cartons. Of the 200 cartons, it is known that 10 of them have leaked and cannot be sold. A stock clerk randomly chooses 18 for inspection. He wants to know the probability that among the 18, no more than two are leaking. Give five reasons why this is a hypergeometric problem.
