For this problem, the most accurate is to use combinations
Because the order in which it was selected in the components does not matter to us, we use combinations
Then the combinations are 
n represents the amount of things you can choose and choose r from them
You need the probability that the 3 selected components at least one are defective.
That is the same as:
(1 - probability that no component of the selection is defective).
The probability that none of the 3 selected components are defective is:
Where 
is the number of ways to select 3 non-defective components from 117 non-defective components and 
is the number of ways to select 3 components from 120.
So:
Finally, the probability that at least one of the selected components is defective is:
P = 7.4%
Simply add and multiply the numbers and you get 13.235
in word form that would be
13 and 2 tenths and 3 hundredths and 5 thousandths
Y=-3/2L -2. At the Y axis, line L is at -2, so we add that as B or the Y intercept. We can see that the graph goes 2 over to the right and down three, which makes the slope negative and 3/2 (rise/run)

Assuming this problem :"Only 30% of the students in a certain liberal arts college are males.
If two students from this college are selected at random, what is the probability that they are both males?"
Previous concepts
An independent event is an "event that has no connection to another event's chances of happening ". For this case we can assume that if one person is male and if we select another one the probability that this one would be male or female is totally indepedent from the first selection.
When we have two independent events let's say A and B and we want to find the probability that both events occurs at the same time we can use the following formula:
Solution to the problem
We can define some notation:
first person selected is a male
second person selected is male
On this case we want the probability that both would be males. And we can express this like this on math terms:
For this case we can assume that the two events are independent. And in order to find the probability for two events independents events we just need to multiply the probabilities of each one like this:
