P (2 obtained on even numbered toss) = k (let)

P (2) = 1 6  

P (  2 ¯ )= 5 6  

k = 5 6 * 1 6 + ( 5 6 ) 3 * 1 6 + ( 5 6 ) 5 * 1 6 + . . .

= 5 6 * 1 6 1 ( 5 6 ) 2

= 5 1 1

If x = 0, y = 6, 7, 8, 9, 10

If x = 1, y = 7, 8, 9, 10

If x = 2, y = 8, 9, 10

If x = 3, y = 9, 10

If x = 4, y = 10

If x = 5, y = no possible value

Total possible ways = (5 + 4 + 3 + 2 + 1) * 2

= 30

Required probability  = 3 0 1 1 * 1 1 = 3 0 1 2 1

P (2W and 2B) = P (2B, 6W) * P (2W and 2B)

+ P (3B, 5W) * P (2W and 2B)

+ P (4B, 4W) * P (2W and 2B)

+ P (5B, 3W) * P (2W and 2B)

+ P (6B, 2W) * P (2W and 2B)

(15 + 30 + 36 + 30 + 15)

           

= 3 6 1 2 6

= 1 8 6 3

= 6 2 1

= 2 7

Let probability of tail is   1 3

Probability of getting head = 2 3  

Probability of getting 2 heads and 1 tail

= ( 2 3 * 2 3 * 1 3 ) * 3

= 4 2 7 * 3

= 4 9

ax2 + bx + c = 0

D = b2 – 4ac

D = 0

b2 – 4ac = 0

b2 = 4ac

(i) AC = 1, b = 2 (1, 2, 1) is one way

(ii) AC = 4, b = 4

a = 4 c = 1 a = 2 c = 2 a = 1 c = 4 } 3 w a y s

(iii) AC = 9, b = 6, a = 3, c = 3 is one way

1 + 3 + 1 = 5 way

Required probability = 5 2 1 6

Let

A : Missile hit the target

B : Missile intercepted

P (B) = 1 3 P ( A / B ¯ ) = 3 4

P ( B ¯ ) = 2 3

P ( B ¯ A ) = 3 4 * 2 3 = 1 2

Required Probability = 2 3 * 3 4 * 2 3 * 3 4 * 2 3 * 3 4 = 1 8

Each element of ordered pair (i, j) is either present in A or in B.

              So, A + B = Sum of all elements of all ordered pairs {i, j} for 1 i 1 0 and 1 j 1 0  

              = 20 (1 + 2 + 3 + … + 10) = 1100

P (H) = x . P (T) = 1 – x

P (4H. 1T) = P (5H)           

6x = 5 = 0             x = 5 6  

P (atmost 2H)

P ( O H , 5 T ) + P ( 1 H , 4 T ) + P ( 2 H , 3 T )  

= 1 6 5 ( 1 + 2 5 + 2 5 0 ) = 2 7 6 6 5 = 4 6 6 4

a * ( b * c ) = 3 b c = u

b * ( c * a ) = c 2 a = v

c * ( b * a ) = 3 b 2 a = w

u + v = w

so vectors

u , v a n d w

are coplanar, hence their Scalar triple product will be zero.
