Abin contains six parts. Two of the parts are defective and four are acceptable.
If three of the six parts are selected from the bin, how large is the sample space?
0 defective:: 4C3 = 4 unique sets of 3 acceptable
1 defective: 2C1*4C2 = 2*6 = 12 unique sets of 1 defective and 2 acceptable
2 defective: 2C2*4C1 = 1*4 = 4 uniqe sets of 2 defective ad 1 acceptable
