A company has a fleet of 16 trucks used to transport produce. When 4 of the trucks are inspected at a police safety checkpoint, it is found that they all have defective brakes. The owner of the company claims
that the other 12 trucks have good brakes. Assuming that only 4 of the 16 trucks have faulty brakes, find
the probability that the police officer just happened to find those 4 trucks. Based on the result, do you
think the owner is lying?
