解析 In the context of this problem,represents the number of ways r specimens can be selected without replacement from n specimens.
The probability that only 1 of the 5 specimens selected from the 40 specimens will have the trait is equal to
number of ways to select 5 specimens, only 1 of which has the trait
           number of ways to select 5 specimens
The number of ways 5 specimens can be selected from the 40 specimens is. To select 5 specimens, only 1 of which has the trait, you have to select 1 of the 3 specimens that have the trait and select 4 of the 37 specimens that do not have the trait. The number of such selections is the product.So the probability that only 1 of the 5 specimens selected will have the trait is represented by. The correct answer is Choice E.
