To be precise, the size of your sample space is <span><span>(<span>2410</span>)</span><span>(<span>2410</span>)</span></span>. This number does go on the bottom of the fraction, and what goes on top is the size of the event. Break up the event into independent events 1. choose the 2 defective bulbs, and 2. choose the remaining 8 bulbs. I don't have much choice in event 1. There is only one way to choose both of the defective balls. In other words, <span><span>(<span>22</span>)</span><span>(<span>22</span>)</span></span> (choosing 2 defective bulbs from a set of 2 defective bulbs). For event 2, there are <span><span>24−2=22</span><span>24−2=22</span></span> nondefective bulbs, and I must choose <span>88</span> of them, so that's <span><span>(<span>228</span>)</span><span>(<span>228</span>)</span></span>. Finally, since events 1 and 2 are independent, we multiply the answers for the combined event: <span><span><span>(<span>22</span>)</span><span>(<span>228</span>)</span></span><span><span>(<span>22</span>)</span><span>(<span>228</span>)</span></span></span>
<span><span>P=<span><span><span>(<span>22</span>)</span><span>(<span>228</span>)</span></span><span>(<span>2410</span>)</span></span></span><span>P=<span><span><span>(<span>22</span>)</span><span>(<span>228</span>)</span></span><span>(<span>2410</span>)</span></span></span></span>
Or, since <span><span><span>(<span>22</span>)</span>=1</span><span><span>(<span>22</span>)</span>=1</span></span>,
<span><span>P=<span><span>(<span>228</span>)</span><span>(<span>2410</span>)</span></span></span><span>P=<span><span>(<span>228</span>)</span><span>(<span>2410</span>)</span></span></span></span>
Hope this helps!
1, 3, 3, 4, 5, 6, each x is one of each number below
Answer:
79.6 ft / 1 minute
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: $408.96
Step-by-step explanation:
P(picking one defective) = 3/10
P(picking a 2nd defective) = 2/9
P(1 and 2 defective) = 3/10 x 2/9 = 6/90 = 0.066
Second method using combination:
³C₂ / ¹⁰C₂ = 1/15 = 0.066
