A shipment of 40 television sets contains 3 defective units. How many ways can a vending company can buy five?

A shipment of 40 Television sets contains 3 defective units. How many ways can a vending company can buy five of these units and receive no defective units.

How would you go about solving this?

He first turns on 5 TVs. If they all are good, he quits. If there are one or more defective units he selects another set. If he now has 5 good ones he quits. If not he picks a seventh set. If he now has 5 good sets he quits. Otherwise he has four good sets and three bad sets so all of the rest are good and he just picks up one of them. Now he must have five good set.

Of course he could just turn on eight sets while the first one is still warming up and he has to have five or more good sets.

How do you broadcast from the television on JustinTV?

Do I need certain cables that connect to the computer to the Television? Or do I need a certain hardware?

It depends on the TV.

My TV has a standard VGA input and 3.5mm audio input, so I use a normal monitor and sound cable.

My old TV has a SCART input, so I a graphics card with S-Video out, which I connected to an S-Video to SCART adapter along with a 3.5mm to TV audio cable.

There are certain favorite television shows on air. How can one learn to watch much less television?

It is not easy for him/her to watch less TV or stop watching it because there are favorite TV shows he/she loves. Having favorite Television shows makes watching TV very addicting.

But how can one learn to stop watching television? It’s very difficult to do so.

I have this problem!
What I do is not watch new series. For example I don’t watch glee or Modern Family since it’s new. I watch the existing shows and when they get canceled I don’t watch any new shows.
What I actually do is watch canceled shows.
