A group of three undergraduate and five graduate students are available to fill certain student government posts. If four students are to be randomly selected from this group, find the probability that exactly two undergraduates will be among the four chosen.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Let

Undergraduates

Graduates

So, we have:

-- Total students

--- students to select

Required

From the question, we understand that 2 undergraduates are to be selected; This means that 2 graduates are to be selected.

First, we calculate the total possible selection (using combination)

So, we have:

Using a calculator, we have:

The number of ways of selecting 2 from 3 undergraduates is:

The number of ways of selecting 2 from 5 graduates is:

So, the probability is:

the car was traveling 40 mph before it started skidding. ( 2 points ) 17. was the driver were her brakes working at 75% efficiency or better? ( 2 points ) yes 29.
