Answer 1

Answer:

steps below

Step-by-step explanation:

Total = 12+17+14 = 43

Without replacement:

C(12,5) / C(43,5) = (12!/5!*7!) / (43!/5!*38!) = (12*11*10*9*8) / (43*42*41*40*39)

                          = 95040 / 115511760

                           = 0.00082

                           ≈ 0.082%

with replacement: 12/43*12/43*12/43*12/43*12/43 = 12⁵ / 43⁵
