In this problem, 4 units must be chose from a shipment of 12 microwave ovens containing 3 defective units. 

To solve for the probability that at least 2 units are good,
[(9c2 x 3c2) + (9c3 x 3c1) + 9c4] / 12c4 
= 486/495 
= 54/55 or 0.9818

P(defective) = 3/12 = 1/4
P(good) = 1 - 1/4 = 3/4
P(2\ good)=4C2\times0.75^{2}\times0.25^{2}=0.211
P(3\ good)=4C3\times0.75^{3}\times0.25=0.422
P(4\ good)=0.75^{4}=0.316
The probability that at least 2 units are good is given by:
P(2 good) + P(3 good) + P(4 good) = 0.211 + 0.422 + 0.316 = 0.949.

Molodets [167]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that identity:

cos^2x+sin^2x=1.

From that we have:

cos^2x=1-sin^2x.

So it is:

cos^2x-sin^x=(1-sin^2x)-sin^2x=1-2sin^2x.

And this is A).

B) is not treu because cos^2 is not sin^2x+1

C) is not true because cos^2x-sin^x=1 is false.

D) is not treu because cos^2x is not sin^2x-1
