Answer:

[tex]P(Good\ and\ Bad) = 12/49[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Give

[tex]Good = 4[/tex]

[tex]Bad = 3[/tex]

Required

[tex]P(Good\ and\ Bad)[/tex]

This is calculated as:

[tex]P(Good\ and\ Bad) = P(Good) * P(Bad)[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]P(Good\ and\ Bad) = n(Good)/Total * n(Bad)/Total[/tex]

[tex]P(Good\ and\ Bad) = 4/7 * 3/7[/tex]

[tex]P(Good\ and\ Bad) = 12/49[/tex]
