Answer:

You keep them if you test 3 and all pass.

There are 18 good ones and 6 bad (making 24)

Chance of first passing is 18/24

If it passes, there are now one less good and one less total.

Chance of second passing is 17/23

If it passes, there are now one less good and one less total.

Chance of second passing is 16/22

Total is (16 x 17 x 18) / (22 x 23 x 24) = about 0.4 (0.403162055 is you really want to know).

So probability all are ok is 0.4

Thus probability you find at least one bad one is 0.6

Hope this helps you out!

Jamal deposits $1000 into a savings account on his 18th birthday. If the 2% interest is compounded yearly, how much will he have
dalvyx [7]
The number of years (n) that the deposit stayed in his balance is given by: 65 - 18 = 47 years.

The future value (FV) of a deposit (P), deposited at an interest rate of r% compounded yearly for n years is given by

FV=P(1+r)^n

Given that <span>Jamal deposits P = $1000 into a savings account on for n = 47years at 2% interest compounded yearly, the amount in his bank account at the end of the period is given by

FV=1000(1+0.02)^{47} \\  \\ =1000(1.02)^{47}=1000(2.53634) \\  \\ =\$2,536.34</span>
