Probability

49. Here, out of 100 students, first section has 40 students and the rest I e, 60 students enters in second section.

As me and my friend are among the 100 students.

The no. of ways of selecting 2 students from the 100 students

= 100C₂

(a) When both enters first section if 2 of us are among the 40 stud

48. Total no. of ticket for lottery sold = 10, 000

 No. of ticket that are awarded prize = 10

So, no. of ticket that are not awarded prize = 10.000 - 10

= 9990

(a) Now, probability of met getting a prize if we buy one ticket

47. Since the die has two faces each mark 1, three faces each marks 2 and one face mark 3.

The possible sample space of outcome is.

S = {1, 2, 3} so, n (s) = 6

(i) P (2) $\frac{3}{6}=\frac{1}{2}$

(ii) P (1 or 3) = P (1) + P (3) = $\frac{2}{6}+\frac{1}{6}=\frac{2+1}{6}=\frac{3}{6}=\frac{1}{2}$

(iii) P (not 3) = 1 P (3) = 1 -$\frac{1}{6}$ = $\frac{6-1}{6}=\frac{5}{6}$

46. Total number of ways of drawing 4 cards from a duck of 52 cards,  n (s) = ⁵²C₄

Total no. of diamond cards = 13

Similarly, total. no. of spades cards = 13

45. Given,

No. of red marbles= 10

No. of blue marbles = 20

No. of green marbles = 30.

So, total no. of marbles = 10 + 20 + 30 = 60

Now, we are to select 5 marbles from the given 60 marbles.

So the sample space is:

n (s) = ⁶⁰c₅.

44. Given that, total number of student, n (S) = 60

Let A: student opted for NCC

n (A) = 30

B: student opted for NSS

n (B) = 32

And student who opted both NCC and NSS, n (A∩B) = 24

(i) Probability that student opted for NCC or NSS,

P (A∪B) = P (A) + P (B) – P (A∩B)

$=\frac{n\left(\right)}{n\left(\right)}+\frac{n\left(\right)}{n\left(\right)}-\frac{n(A\cap B)}{n\left(\right)}$

$=\frac{30}{60}+\frac{32}{60}-\frac{24}{60}$

$=\frac{30+32-24}{60}=\frac{38}{60}=\frac{19}{30}$

(ii) Probability that student opted nei

43. Let A: student passing in Hindi

B: student passing in English

Given, P (B) = 0.75

P (A∩B) = 0.5, passing both subject

And P (A'∩B') = 0.1, i.e., passing neither subject

P (A∪B)' = 0.1

1 – P (A∪B) = 0.1

P (A∪B) = 1 – 0.1

P (A∪B) = 0.9

Hence, P (A∪B) = P (A) + P (B) – P (A∩B)

P (A) = P (A∪B) + P (A∩B) – P (

42. Let A: Student passes 1st examination

So, P (A) = 0.8

And B: Student passes 2nd examination

So, P (B) = 0.7

Also probability of passing at least one examination is P (A∪B) = 0.95

Therefore, P (A∪B) = P (A) + P (B) – P (A∩B)

0.95 = 0.8 + 0.7 – P (A∩B)

P (A∩B) = 0.8 + 0.7 – 0.95

P (A∩B) = 0.55

Hence,

41. Given that, 40% study Mathematics, 30% study Biology and 10% study both Mathematics and Biology.

Let A: Students study Mathematics.

P (A) = 40% = $\frac{40}{100}$ .

Let B: Students study Biology.

P (B) = 30% = $\frac{30}{100}$ .

So, P (A∩B) i.e. probability of student studying both Mathematics and Biology is

P

40. Given P (A) = 0.42

P (B) = 0.48

P (A∩B) = 0.16

(i) P (not A) = P (A') = 1 – P (A) = 1 – 0.42 = 0.58

(ii) P (not B) = P (B') = 1 – P (B) = 1 – 0.48 = 0.52

(iii) P (A or B) = P (A∪B) = P (A) + P (B) – P (A∩B)

= 0.42 + 0.48 – 0.16

= 0.74
