Answer:

The number of ways to select a sample of 2 computer chips so that at least one of the chips is defective is 33 ways.

Step-by-step explanation:

The box contains 13 computer chips. Of these 13 chips 3 are defective and 10 are good.

A quality control inspector samples 2 computer chips.

The number of ways to select at least 1 defective chip is:

n (At least 1 defective chip) = n (1 defective chip) + n (2 defective chips)

The number of ways to select 1 defective chip is: {3\choose 1}{10\choose 1}=3\times10=30 ways.

The number of ways to select 2 defective chips is:{3\choose 2}{10\choose 0}=3\times1=3 ways.

n (At least 1 defective chip) = n (1 defective chip) + n (2 defective chips)

                                             = 30 + 3

                                             = 33

Thus, the number of ways to select a sample of 2 computer chips so that at least one of the chips is defective is 33 ways.
