Question 1113003: Can someone help? Thank you.
AAA batteries are sold in pack of 10. An inspector selects two batteries at random without replacement. If both batteries work then the pack is accepted. If one works, then the inspector selects 2 more from the remaining batteries. What is the probability that a pack with 3 defective batteries will be accepted?

You need to post the probability a battery is defective.
Cheers,
