Math Problem Statement
Suppose you have just received a shipment of 15 modems. Although you don't know this, 3 of the modems are defective. To determine whether you will accept the shipment, you randomly select 4 modems and test them. If all 4 modems work, you accept the shipment. Otherwise, the shipment is rejected. What is the probability of accepting the shipment? Question content area bottom Part 1 The probability of accepting the shipment is enter your response here. (Round to four decimal places as needed.)
