you know what you have to do here?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
you pick 4 light bulbs
none could be defective
one could be defective
two could be defective
three could be defective
you have to compute each of those probabilities
OpenStudy (anonymous):
what do you mean by compute?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
find ?
