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.

Solve the equation for an ellipse for y. Assume that y &gt; 0. y^2/a^2 + x^2/b^2 = 1
In-s [12.5K]
Multiply each term by a^2b^2:-

b^2y^2 + a^2x^2 = a^2b^2
subtract a^2x^2 from both sides
b^2y^2  = a^2b^2  - a^2x^2
Now divide both sides  by b^2

y^2 =  a^2 -  a^2x^2 / b^2  = a^2 (1 - x^2/b^2)

take positive square root ( because y > 0)

y  = a sqrt(1 - x^2/b^2)
