Question:
17. A wire manufacturing company has inspectors to examine the wire for fractures as it comes out of a machine.

One day an inspector has to take an emergency phone call and is missing from his post for ten minutes. If the machine turns out 7 meters of wire per minute, what is the probability that the inspector will miss more than one fracture?
