Answer #1

Let A be the event of selecting an anthropology majors student, while N be the event of selecting non-anthropology majors student.

We need to calculate the probability that:

P(at least 2 students selected are non-anthropology majors)

= P(ANN) + P(NAN) + P(NNA) + P(NNN)

=9/22 * 13/21 * 12/20 * 3 + 13/22*12/21*11/20

= 5928/9240

= 247/385

0.641558
