Question : 3

A bag has 13 red, 14 green and 15 white balls, $p_1$ is the probability of drawing exactly 2 white balls when four balls are drawn. Then the number of balls of each colour are doubled. Let $p_2$ be the probability of drawing 4 white balls when 8 ball are drawn, then

a) $p_1 > p_2$

b) $p_1 < p_2$

c) $p_1 = p_2$

d) None

Answer: (a)

$p_1 = {^{15}C_2}/{^{42}C_4} = {15 × 14 × 4!}/{2! × 42 × 41 × 40 × 39} = 1/{41 × 26}$ and

$p_2 = {^{30}C_4}/{^{84}C_8} = {15 × 14 × 13 × 12 × 8!}/{4! × 84 × 83 × 82 × ...... × 77}$

= ${15 × 14 × 13 × 12 × 8 × 7 × 6 × 5}/{84 × 83 × 82 × 81 × 79 × 78 × 77} < p_1$

⇒$p_1 > p_2$.

Question : 4

If 20 lines are drawn in a plane such that no two of them are parallel and no three are concurrent, the number of points in which they intersect each other is

a) 190

b) 250

c) 220

d) 120

Answer: (a)

Points are formed when two lines cuts each others.

No. of ways $^{20}C_2 = {20!}/{2!18!} = {20 × 19}/2$ = 190

Question : 5

a) $16/17$

b) $5!/9!$

c) $1/63$

d) None of these

Answer: (c)

(AAAA), (LL), HBD

P = ${5!}/{{9!}/{4!2!}} = {5! × 4! × 2!}/{9!}$

= ${24 × 2}/{9 × 8 × 7 × 6} = 1/{63}$

Question : 6

A man and his wife appear for an interview for two posts. The probability of the husband's selection is $1/7$ and that of the wife's selection is $1/5$ . The probability that only one of them will be selected is

a) $4/{35}$

b) $6/{35}$

c) $6/7$

d) $2/7$

Answer: (d)

Probability that only husband is selected

= P(H) P($\ov{W}$) = $1/7(1 - {1/5}) = 1/7 × 4/5 = 4/{35}$

Probability that only wife is selected

= P($\ov{H}$) P(W) = $(1 - {1/7})(1/5) = 6/7 × 1/5 = 6/{35}$

∴ Probability that only one of them is selected

=$4/{35} + 6/{35} = {10}/{35} = 2/7$
