73. Suppose X has a binomial distribution B(6,1/2) Show that X = 3 is the most likely outcome.
(Hint: P(X = 3) is the maximum among all P (xi), xi = 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6)
73. Suppose X has a binomial distribution B(6,1/2) Show that X = 3 is the most likely outcome.
(Hint: P(X = 3) is the maximum among all P (xi), xi = 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6)
73. X is the random variable whose binomial distribution is B(6,1/2).
Therefore, n = 6 and p = ½
It can be seen that P (X=x) will be maximum, if
will be maximum.
The value of
is maximum. Therefore, for x=3, P(X=x) is maximum.
Therefore, P(X=3) is maximum.
72. In an examination, 20 questions of true-false are asked. Suppose a student tosses a fair coin to determine his answer to each question. If the coin falls heads, he answers ‘true’, if it falls tails, he answers ‘false’. Find the probability that he answers at least 12 questions correctly.
72. In an examination, 20 questions of true-false are asked. Suppose a student tosses a fair coin to determine his answer to each question. If the coin falls heads, he answers ‘true’, if it falls tails, he answers ‘false’. Find the probability that he answers at least 12 questions correctly.
72. Let X represent the number of correctly answered questions out of 20 questions.
The repeated tosses of a coin are Bernoulli trails. Since “head” on a coin represents the true answer and “tail” represents the false answer, the correctly answered questions are Bernoulli trials.
X has a binomial dist
71. A bag consists of 10 balls each marked with one of the digits 0 to 9. If four balls are drawn successively with replacement from the bag, what is the probability that none is marked with the digit 0?
71. A bag consists of 10 balls each marked with one of the digits 0 to 9. If four balls are drawn successively with replacement from the bag, what is the probability that none is marked with the digit 0?
71. Let X denote the number of balls marked with the digit 0 among the 4 balls drawn.
Since the balls are drawn with replacement, the trials are Bernoulli trials.
X has a binomial distribution with n = 4 and p = 1/10
P (none marked with 0)=P (X=0)
70. The probability that a bulb produced by a factory will fuse after 150 days of use is 0.05. Find the probability that out of 5 such bulbs.
70. The probability that a bulb produced by a factory will fuse after 150 days of use is 0.05. Find the probability that out of 5 such bulbs.
70. Let X represent the number of bulbs that will fuse after 150 days of use in an experiment of 5 trials. The trials are Bernoulli trials.
It is given that, p = 0.05
X has a binomial distribution with n=5 and

(ii) P (not more than one)
(iii) P (more than 1)
(not more th
69. Five cards are drawn successively with replacement from a well-shuffled deck of 52 cards. What is the probability that:
(i) All the five cards are spade?
(ii) Only 3 cards are spades?
(iii) None is spade?
69. Five cards are drawn successively with replacement from a well-shuffled deck of 52 cards. What is the probability that:
(i) All the five cards are spade?
(ii) Only 3 cards are spades?
(iii) None is spade?
69. Let X represent the number of spade cards among the five cards drawn. Since the drawing of card is with replacement, the trials are Bernoulli trials.
In a well shuffled deck of 52 cards, there are 13 spade cards.
X has a binomial distribution with n=5 and

P (all five cards are spades)&nb
68. There are 5% defective items in a large bulk of items. What is the probability that a sample of 10 items will include not more than one defective item?
68. There are 5% defective items in a large bulk of items. What is the probability that a sample of 10 items will include not more than one defective item?
68. Let X denote the number of defective items in a sample of 10 items drawn successively. Since the drawing is done with replacement, the trials are Bernoulli trials.
X has a binomial distribution with n=10 and

P (not more than 1 defective item)
67. A pair of dice is thrown 4 times. If getting a doublet is considered a success, find the probability of two successes.
67. A pair of dice is thrown 4 times. If getting a doublet is considered a success, find the probability of two successes.
67. The repeated tosses of a pair of dice are Bernoulli trials. Let X denote the number of times of getting doublets in an experiment of throwing two dice simultaneously four times.
Probability of getting doublets in a single throw of the pair of dice is
Clearly, X has the binomial distribution w
66. A die is thrown 6 times. If ‘getting an odd number’ is a success, what is the probability of:
(i) 5 successes?
(ii) at least 5 successes?
(iii) at most 5 successes?
66. A die is thrown 6 times. If ‘getting an odd number’ is a success, what is the probability of:
(i) 5 successes?
(ii) at least 5 successes?
(iii) at most 5 successes?
66. The repeated tosses of a die are Bernoulli trials. Let X denote the number of successes of getting odd numbers in an experiment of 6 trials.
Probability of getting an odd number in a single throw of a die is, p - 3/6 = 1/2
q = 1 - p = 1/2
X has a binomial distribution.

P (at most 5 succes
66. Suppose that two cards are drawn at random from a deck of cards. Let X be the number of aces obtained. What is the value of E(X)?

66. Suppose that two cards are drawn at random from a deck of cards. Let X be the number of aces obtained. What is the value of E(X)?
(A)
(B)
(C)
(D)
66. Let X denote the number of aces obtained. Therefore, X can take any of the values of 0, 1, or 2.
In a deck of 52 cards, 4 cards are aces. Therefore, there are 48 non-ace cards.

X | 0 | 1 | 2 |
P (X) | 1128/1326 | 192/1326 | 6/1326 |
Therefore, option D is correct
Choose the correct answer in each of the following:
Q.65. The mean of the numbers obtained on throwing a die having written 1 on three faces, 2 on two faces and 5 on one face is:
(A) 1
(B) 2
(C) 5
(D)
Choose the correct answer in each of the following:

(A) 1
(B) 2
(C) 5

65. Let X be the random variable representing a number on the die.
The total number of observations is six.
Therefore, the probability distribution is as follows.
X | 1 | 2 | 5 |
P (X) | 1/2 | 1/3 | 1/6 |
Therefore, option (B) is correct.
