likoan [24]

Answer:

(f-g)(x) = x^4 - x^3 - 4x^2 - 3

(f-g)(x) = x^4 - x^2 + 9 - (x^3 + 3x^2 + 12)

(f-g)(x) = x^4 - x^2 + 9 - x^3 - 3x^2 - 12

A bag contains 6 red balls and 3 blue balls. 4 balls are selected at random. find the probability of selecting 4 red balls.
geniusboy [140]
Assuming that the balls are not replaced; 

\frac{6}{9}* \frac{5}{8}* \frac{4}{7}* \frac{3}{6}= 5/42 

(the numbers are decreasing in the denominator as you are presumably taking out the red balls. In the denominator, there is one less ball each time since you took out a red one). 

Therefore, the probability of selected 4 red balls consecutively without replacement is 5/42. 

Hope I Helped :)
