Suppose you just received a shipment of eleven televisions. three of the televisions are defective. if two televisions are randomly​ selected, compute the probability that both televisions work. what is the probability at least one of the two televisions does not​ work?

Hello!

You have to first find the percentage of the tv's are defective

3/11 = 0.27

27% of the tvs are defective

the probability of one of the tv's working is 8/11

the probability of the second tv working is 7/10

You multiply these together

8/11 * 7/10 = 28/55

There is a 28 out of 55 chance both tvs work

There is a 3/11 probability that one of the tvs does not work

Hope this helps!
1) 11-3= 8 TV work
8/11 - probability 1st TV works
7/10 -probability 2nd TV works
8/11*7/10=28/55 that both TV work

2)3/11 first TV does not work       
8/10 second TV works
3/11*8/10 = 12/55 that at least one does not work
