Four microchips are to be placed in a computer. Two of the four chips are randomly selected for inspection before assembly of the computer. Let X denote the number of defective chips found among the two chips inspected. Find the probability distribution for X if: a.) Two of the microchips were defective. b.) One of the four microchips was defective. c.) None of the microchips was defective.
