The probability that the bulb is good is 12/15.
Since we have taken 1 item out the remaining total is now 14, so the probability of getting a defective bulb is now 3/14.
Now you multiply the probabilities together to get (12/15)(3/14)=(4/5)(3/14)=12/70=6/35

What can be used as a statement in a two column proof?
A two-column proof consists of a list of statements, and the reasons why those statements are true. The statements are in the left column and the reasons are in the right column. The statements consists of steps toward solving the problem.
If point A is between B and C, then CA+AB = CB by the segment addition postulate. This is the idea of taking two smaller segments to "glue" them together to form a larger segment. Or you can think in reverse: take some larger segment and split it somewhere in between the endpoints (not necessarily the halfway point), this will produce two smaller segments.
For example: you have a ruler that is 12 inches. Take a saw and cut the ruler at the "2 inch" marker. You'll end up with two smaller pieces of plastic: one of which is 2 inches, the other 10 inches. The two smaller pieces can be taped together to reform the original 12 inch ruler.
