A box contains 10 items, of which 3 are defective and 7 are non-defective. Two items are randomly selected, one at a time, with replacement, and x is the number of defective items in the sample. To look up the probability of a defective item being drawn from the box, using a binomial probability table, what would be the values of n, x and p to look up?
