Answer:

1/20

Step-by-step explanation:

Remark: Not huge

Total number of Socks: 6 + 6 + 4 = 16

P(First Black Sock):  4/16 = 1/4

The second Sock needs to be discussed a bit. The number of black  socks has gone down to 1 and the total will always go down by 1.

Second Sock: 3 Black / 15 Total = 3/15 = 1/5

Combined Probability: 1/4 * 1/5 = 1/20

dy/dx = 12x^2 + 4 

when x = 2 , dydx = 52

52 = dy/dt / 3
