Find the sum using the formulas for the sums of powers of integers. $$\sum_{n=1}^{15} n$$
Problem 47
A shipment of 12 microwave ovens contains three defective units. A vending company has ordered four units, and because each has identical packaging, the selection will be random. What is the probability that (a) all four units are good, (b) exactly two units are good, and (c) at least two units are good?
