Articles coming through an inspection line are visually inspected by two successive inspectors. When a defective article comes through the inspection line, the probability that it gets by the first inspector is 0.2. The second inspector will "miss" five out of ten of the defective items that get past the first inspector. What is the probability that a defective item gets by both inspectors?

A certain manufactured item is visually inspected by two different inspectors. When a defective item comes through the line, the probability that it gets by the first inspector is 0.5%. Of those that get past the first inspector, the second inspector will "miss" 2 out of 10". What is the probability that a defective item will not be detected by both inspectors?
