Final answer:
The student requires information regarding the probability of accepting a shipment with defective components, but further details are needed such as the total number of components or the individual defect rate. Examples provided invoke geometric and hypergeometric distributions for similar problems.
Step-by-step explanation:
The student is asking about the probability of accepting a shipment of components based on a random sampling where defective components are involved. This seems like a question involving either the binomial or hypergeometric distribution, depending on whether the number of defectives in the population is known or if the probability of finding defective components is constant for each component tested.
For the specific problem stated in the student's question, it appears we are missing some details necessary to make calculations, such as the total number of components in the shipment or the probability that any one component is defective. Without these specifics, we cannot compute the exact probabilities. However, we could refer to the provided Example 4.19, which used a geometric distribution for a similar problem of finding the first defect. In that case, the probability of finding the first defect on the seventh trial was calculated using a formula for the geometric distribution.
In Example 4.22, the hypergeometric distribution is probably used, since the problem mentions an exact number of defective items (10 out of 100 DVD players). However, with the examples provided and the details available in the student's question, we cannot provide a numerical probability without additional information.
