a) 459/512
b) 471/ 502
c) 272 / 464
d) 239/412
Q2. Two cards are drawn successively with replacement from a well shuffled deck of 52 cards then the mean of the number of aces is b) 2/13
a) 1/13
b) 2/13
c) 3 /13
d) 4/13
Q3. A fair die is tossed repeatedly. A wins if it is 1 or 2 on two consecutive tosses and B wins if it is 3, 4, 5 or 6 on two consecutive tosses. The probability that A wins if the die is tossed indefinitely is b) 5/21
a) 1/3
b) 5/21
c) 16/21
d) 2/5
Q4. One card is drawn randomly from a pack of 52 cards, then what is the probability that it is a king or spade? c) 4/13
a) 9/13
b) 2/3
c) 4/13
d) 7/15
Q5. The probability that a man will be alive in 20 years is 3 / 5 and the probability that his wife will be alive in 20 years is 2 / 3. Then what is the probability that at least one will be alive in 20 years? b) 13 / 15 Let A be the event that the husband will be alive in 20 years and B be the event that the wife will be alive in 20 years. Clearly A and B are independent events. P (A ∩ B) = P (A) * P (B) Given P (A) = 3 / 5, P (B) = 2 / 3 The probability that at least of them will be alive in 20 years is P (A ∪ B) = P (A) + P (B) − P (A ∩ B) = P (A) + P (B) − P (A) P (B) = 3 / 5 + 2 / 3 − [3 / 5] * [2 / 3] = [9 + 10 − 6] / [15] = 13 / 15
a) 7 / 15
b) 13 / 15
c) 13 / 17
d) 7 / 13
Q6. If A and B are two independent events such that P (A ∩ B′) = 3 / 25 and P (A′ ∩ B) = 8 / 25, then P (A) = _______. a) 1/5 and 3/5 Since events are independent. So, P (A ∩ B′) = P (A) × P (B′) = 3 / 25 ⇒ P (A) × {1 − 2 P (B)} = 3 / 25 ….(i) Similarly, P (B) × {1 − P (A)} = 8 / 25 ….(ii) On solving (i) and (ii), we get P (A) = 1/5 and 3/5
a) 1/5 and 3/5
b) 2/5 and 4/5
c) 3/5 and 4/7
d) None of these
Q7. The probabilities that A and B will die within a year are p and q respectively, then the probability that only one of them will be alive at the end of the year is __________. d) p + q − 2pq Solution: Required probability is P [(A will die and B alive) or (B will die and A alive)] = P [(A ∩ B′) ∪ (B ∩ A′)] Since events are independent, so Required probability= P (A) * P (B′) + P (B) * P (A′) = p * (1 − q) + q * (1 − p) = p + q − 2pq
a) p – q − 4pq
b) – p + q − 4pq
c) p – q + 2pq
d) p + q − 2pq
Q8. Three ships A, B and C sail from England to India. If the ratio of their arriving safely are 2:5, 3:7 and 6:11 respectively then the probability of all the ships arriving safely is ________. a) 18 / 595 Solution: We have the ratio of the ships A, B and C for arriving safely to be 2:5, 3:7 and 6:11 respectively. The probability of ship A for arriving safely = 2 / [2 + 5] = 2 / 7 Similarly, for B = 3 / [3 + 7] = 3 / 10 and for C = 6 / [6 + 11] = 6 / 17 Probability of all the ships for arriving safely = 2 / 7 × 3 / 10 × 6 / 17 = 18 / 595.
a) 18 / 595
b) 18 / 695
c) 44 / 595
d) 28 / 595
Q9. One coin is thrown 100 times. What is the probability of getting a tail as an odd number? d) 1/2 Solution: Let p = Probability of getting tail = 1 / 2 q = Probability of getting head = 1 / 2 Also, p + q = 1 and n = 100 Required probability = P (X = 1) + P (X = 3) +….. + P (X = 99) = 100C1 * p * q99 + 100C3 * p3 * q97 +……..+ 100C99 * p99 * q1 = [(p + q)100 − (p − q)100] / [2] = 1 / 2.
a) 1/4
b) 3/4
c) 1/3
d) 1/2
Q10. A bag contains 2 white and 4 black balls. A ball is drawn 5 times with replacement. The probability that at least 4 of the balls drawn are white is ________. b) 11 / 243 Solution: Probability for white ball = 2 / 6 = 1 / 3 Probability for black ball = 4 / 6 = 2 / 3 Required probability = 5C5 * (1 / 3)5 * (2 / 3)0 + 5C4 * (1 / 3)4 * (2 / 3) = (1/ 3)4 [(1 / 3) + [5] * [2 / 3]] = 11 / 35 = 11 / 243
a) 11 / 81
b) 11 / 243
c) 11 / 27
d) 11 / 729
