A shipment of 27 personal digital assistants (PDAs) contains 3 that are defective. A quality control specialist inspects 2 of the 27 PDAs. If both are defective, then the shipment is rejected. (a)
Explain whether a permutation or a combination is being used.
Combination, because we are interested in which 2 PDAs are selected and the order in which they are selected.
Permutation, because we are interested in which 2 PDAs are selected and the order in which they are selected.
Permutation, because we are only interested in which 2 PDAs are selected, not the order in which they are selected.
Combination, because we are only interested in which 2 PDAs are selected, not the order in which they are selected.
(b)
Find the number of ways that both PDAs will be defective.
ways
