Answer:
b. No, the probability of getting the broken tape measure changes as there is no replacement.
Explanation:
For each tape measure, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it is broken, or it is not, which means that the first condition for the binomial distribution is respected.
However, the tapes are not returned to the box, which means that in each trial, the probabilities of getting the tape with defect changes, which means that the binomial distribution cannot be used. So option b is the correct answer
