A purchaser of electrical components buys them in lots of size 10. It is her policy to inspect 3 components randomly from a lot and to accept the lot only if all 3 are nondefective. If 30% of the lots have 4 defective components and 70% have only 1 defective component, what proportion of the lots does the purchaser reject?
