Six people are chosen by lot from a group of 15 people to fill six dis tinct positions. If we label the 15 people from 1 through 15
(a) what is the probability that person 1 is selected?
(b) what is the probability that persons 4, 5, 6 , 7, 14 and 15 are selected?
a) Number of people to be selected = 6
Total number of people = 15
P(person 1 is selected) = 6/15
= 0.4
b) Number of ways in which 6 people can be selected from 15 = 15C6 (nCr = n!/(r! x (n-r)!)
= 15!/(6! x 9!)
= 5005
P(persons 4, 5, 6 , 7, 14 and 15 are selected) = 1/5005
= 0.0002
