11. i. n = 6, r = 2
=
=
= 30
ii. n = 9, r = 5
=
=
= 9 * 8 * 7 * 6 * 5
= 15,120

29. Number of women in the city council n (A) = 6
As there are four men and six women the total number of person in the sample space is 4 + 6 = 10.
So, n (S) = 10
P (A) =

28. The sample space of the experiment is
S = { (1, 1), (1, 2), (1, 3), (1, 4), (1, 5), (1, 6), (6, 1), (6, 2), (6, 3), (6, 4), (6, 5) (6, 6)}
So, n (S) = 12.
(i) Let E be event such that sum of numbers that turn up is 3. Then,
E = { (1, 2)}
So, n (E) = 1
P (E) = .
(ii) Let F be event such that sum of number than turn up is 12. Then,
F = { (6, 6)}
So, n (F) = 1
P (F) = .

27. (a) Since there are 52 cards in the sample space,
n (S) = 52.
So, there are 52 sample points.
(b) In a deck of 52 cards there are 4 ace cards of which only one is of spades.
Hence, if A be an event of getting an ace of spades.
n (A) = 1
So, P (A) = .
(c) (i) Let B be an event of drawing an ace. As there are 4 ace cards we have,
n (B) = 4
So, P (B) = .
(ii) Let D be an event of drawing black cards. Since there are 26 black cards we have,
n (D) = 26.
So, P (D) =

8. L.H.S = 3! + 4!
= (1 * 2 * 3) + (1 * 2 * 3 * 4)
= 6 + 24
= 30
R.H.S = 7!
= 1 * 2 * 3 * 4 * 5 * 6 * 7
= 5040
As, L.H.S ≠ R.H.S
3! + 4! ≠ 7!

1. We know that, n! = n (n – 1) (n – 2)…….
i. 8!
8! = 1 * 2 * 3 * 4 * 5 * 6 * 7 * 8
= 40320
ii. 4! – 3!
= (1 * 2 * 3 * 4) – (1 * 2 * 3)
= 24 – 6
= 18

26. The sample space of throwing s dice is
S = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}, n (S) = 6.
(i) Let A be event such that a prime number will appear. Then,
A = {2, 3, 5}
? n (A) = 3
Here; P (A) =
(ii) Let B be event such that a number greater than or equal to 3 will appear. Then
B = {3, 4, 5, 6}
So, n (B) = 4
Therefore P (B) =
(iii) Let C be event such that a number less than or equal to one will appear. Then,
C = {1}
So, n (C) = 1
? P (C) =
(iv) Let D be event such that a number more than 6 appears. Then,
D =∅
So, n (D) = 0
? P (D) =
(v) Let E be event such that a number less than 6 appears. Then
E = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}
