A toy manufacturer inspects boxes of toys before shipment. Each box contains 10 toys. The inspection procedure consists of randomly selecting three toys from the box. If any are defective, then the box is not shipped. Suppose a given box has 2 defective toys in it. What is the probability that it will be shipped? Solve in most simplistic way.
