  • Question 1
    1 / -0

    The HCF of two numbers is 27 and their LCM is 162. If one of the number is 81. Then, the other number is

    Solution

    Given that HCF of two numbers is 27 and their LCM is 162.

    One number is 81.

    Let the other number is a.

    We know that for two positive integer a & b, HCF (a, b) \(\times\) LCM (a,b) = a \(\times\) b.

    Therefore, HCF (81, a) \(\times\) LCM (81, a) = 81 \(\times\) a

    \(\Rightarrow a = \frac{HCF(81, a)\times LCM(81,a)}{81}\)

    \(\Rightarrow a =\frac{27\times 162}{81}=27\times 2 = 54\)

    Hence, the other number is 54.

  • Question 2
    1 / -0

    Total number of terms in the AP 7, 11, 15, …, 139 is

    Solution

    Given AP is 7, 11, 15, …., 139.

    First term of AP is a = 7.

    And common difference of AP is d \(=a_2-a_1\) = 11 – 7 = 4.

    Let \(n^{th}\) term of AP is 139

    \(\therefore\) a + (n – 1) d = 139. (\(\because\) \(n^{th}\) term of AP is given by \(a_n= a+(n-1)d\))

    \(\Rightarrow\) 7 + (n – 1)4 = 139 (\(\because\) a = 7 & d = 4)

    \(\Rightarrow\) 4(n – 1) = 139 – 7 = 132

    \(\Rightarrow\) n – 1 \(=\frac{132}{4}=33\)

    \(\Rightarrow\) n = 33 + 1 = 34.

    Hence, total term in given AP is 34.

  • Question 3
    1 / -0

    We have two system of linear equation, given as:

    \(\mathrm{\frac{3}{x+y}+\frac{2}{x-y}}=2\) and \(\mathrm{\frac{9}{x+y}-\frac{4}{x-y}=1}\)

    When \(u = \frac{1}{\mathrm x+y}\) and \(v = \frac{1}{\mathrm x-y}\), the system of equation becomes:

    Solution

    Given system of equations are \(\mathrm{\frac{3}{x+y}+\frac{2}{x-y}=2}\) and \(\mathrm{\frac{9}{x+y}-\frac{4}{x-y}=1}\)

    Given that u \(=\frac{1}{\mathrm x+y}\) and v \(=\frac{1}{\mathrm x-y}\)

    Then, the system of equations becomes

    3u + 2v = 2.  ...........(1)

    And 9u – 4v = 1. ..........(2)

  • Question 4
    1 / -0

    We have two system of linear equation, given as:

    \(\mathrm{\frac{3}{x+y}+\frac{2}{x-y}=2}\) and \(\frac{9}{\mathrm x+y}-\frac{4}{\mathrm x-y}=1\)

    Let u = \(\frac{1}{\mathrm x+y}\) and v = \(\frac{1}{\mathrm x-y}\). Then given system of equations has solution (in terms of u and v) as:

    Solution

    Given system of equations are \(\frac{3}{\mathrm x+y}+\frac{2}{\mathrm x-y}=2\) and \(\frac{9}{\mathrm x+y}-\frac{4}{\mathrm x-y}=1\)

    Given that \(u = \frac{1}{\mathrm x+y}\) and \(v = \frac{1}{\mathrm x-y}\)

    Then, the system of equations becomes

    3u + 2v = 2. ............(1)

    And 9u – 4v = 1. ...........(2)

    Multiplying equation (1) by 2, we get

    6u + 4v = 4. ............(3)

    By adding equations (2) and (3), we get (9u – 4v) + (6u + 4v) = 1 + 4

    \(\Rightarrow\) 9u + 6u = 5

    \(\Rightarrow\) 15u = 5 \(\Rightarrow\) \(u = \frac{5}{15}=\frac{1}{3}\)

    Now, putting \(u = \frac{1}{3}\) in equation (1), we get \(3\times \frac{1}{3}+2v = 2\)

    \(\Rightarrow\) 1 + 2v = 2

    \(\Rightarrow\) 2v = 2 – 1 = 1

    \(\Rightarrow\) v \(=\frac{1}{2}\)

    Hence, the solution is \(u =\frac{1}{3}\) and \(v = \frac{1}{2}\)

  • Question 5
    1 / -0

    We have two system of linear equation, given as:

    \(\frac{3}{\mathrm x+y}+\frac{2}{\mathrm x-y}=2\) and \(\frac{9}{\mathrm x+y}-\frac{4}{\mathrm x-y}=1\)

    Let u = \(\frac{1}{\mathrm x+y}\) and v = \(\frac{1}{\mathrm x-y}\) and solve the given system of equations and get solution in terms of u and v. After substituting the value of u and v, the original system of equation becomes :

    Solution

    Given system of equations are \(\frac{3}{\mathrm x+y}+\frac{2}{\mathrm x-y}=2\) and \(\frac{9}{\mathrm x+y}-\frac{4}{\mathrm x-y}=1\)

    Given that \(u = \frac{1}{\mathrm x+y}\) and \(v = \frac{1}{\mathrm x-y}\)

    Then, the system of equations becomes

    3u + 2v = 2. ..........(1)

    And 9u – 4v = 1. ..........(2)

    Multiplying equation (1) by 2, we get

    6u + 4v = 4.  ..............(3)

    By adding equations (2) and (3), we get (9u – 4v) + (6u + 4v) = 1 + 4

    \(\Rightarrow\) 9u + 6u = 5 \(\Rightarrow\) 15 u = 5

    \(\Rightarrow\) \(u = \frac{5}{15}=\frac{1}{3}\)

    Now, putting \(u=\frac{1}{3}\) in equation (1), we get \(3\times \frac{1}{3}+2v = 2\)

    \(\Rightarrow\) 1 + 2v = 2 \(\Rightarrow\) 2v = 2 – 1 = 1

    \(\Rightarrow\) \(v = \frac{1}{2}\)

    Now, \(u = \frac{1}{3}\) but \(u = \frac{1}{\mathrm x+y}\)

    Therefore, \(\frac{1}{\mathrm x+y}=\frac{1}{3}\) \(\Rightarrow\) x + y = 3. ..........(4)

    And \(v = \frac{1}{2}\) but \(v = \frac{1}{\mathrm x-y}\)

    Therefore, \(\frac{1}{\mathrm x-y}=\frac{1}{2}\) \(\Rightarrow\) x – y = 2. ......(5)

    After substituting the value of u and v, the original system of equations becomes

    x + y = 3 and x – y = 2.

  • Question 6
    1 / -0

    We have two system of linear equation, given as:

    \(\mathrm{\frac{3}{x+y}+\frac{2}{x-y}=2}\) and \(\mathrm{\frac{9}{x+y}-\frac{4}{x-y}=1}\)

    Solution of given system of equations (in terms of x and y), is :

    Solution

    Given system of equations are \(\frac{3}{\mathrm x+y}+\frac{2}{\mathrm x-y}=2\) and \(\frac{9}{\mathrm x+y}-\frac{4}{\mathrm x-y}=1\)

    Given that \(u = \frac{1}{\mathrm x+y}\) and \(v = \frac{1}{\mathrm x-y}\)

    Then, the system of equations becomes

    3u + 2v = 2. ...........(1)

    And 9u – 4v = 1. ..........(2)

    Multiplying equation (1) by 2, we get

    6u + 4v = 4. .............(3)

    By adding equations (2) and (3), we get (9u – 4v) + (6u + 4v) = 1 + 4

    \(\Rightarrow 9u + 6u = 5\)

    \(\Rightarrow 15 u = 5\) \(\Rightarrow u = \frac{5}{15}=\frac{1}{3}\)

    Now, puting \(u=\frac{1}{3}\) in equation (1), we get \(3\times \frac{1}{3}+2v=2\)

    \(\Rightarrow\) 1 + 2v = 2

    \(\Rightarrow\) 2v = 2 – 1 = 1

    \(\Rightarrow\) v \(=\frac{1}{2}\)

    Now, \(u = \frac{1}{3}\) but \(u = \frac{1}{\mathrm x+y}\)

    Therefore, \(\frac{1}{\mathrm x+y}=\frac{1}{3}\) \(\Rightarrow \mathrm x+y = 3\) ..........(4)

    And v \(=\frac{1}{2}\) but v \(=\frac{1}{\mathrm x-y}\)

    Therefore, \(\frac{1}{\mathrm x+y}=\frac{1}{2}\) \(\Rightarrow \mathrm x -y = 2\) ..........(5)

    By adding equations (4) and (5), we get (x + y) + (x – y) = 3 + 2

    \(\Rightarrow\) 2x = 5 \(\Rightarrow \mathrm x =\frac{5}{2}\) 

    Now, putting \(\mathrm x = \frac{5}{2}\) in equation (4), we get \(\frac{5}{2}+y = 3\)

    \(\Rightarrow y = 3-\frac{5}{2}=\frac{1}{2}\)

    Hence, the solution of given system of equations is \(\mathrm x =\frac{5}{2}\) and \(y = \frac{1}{2}\).

  • Question 7
    1 / -0

    We have two system of linear equation, given as:

    \(\frac{3}{\mathrm x+y}+\frac{2}{\mathrm x-y}=2\) and \(\frac{9}{\mathrm x+y}-\frac{4}{\mathrm x-y}=1\)

    Let u = \(\frac{1}{\mathrm x+y}\) and v = \(\frac{1}{\mathrm x-y}\) and solve the given system of equations and get solution in terms of u and v. After substituting the value of u and v we get a modified system of equations (in terms of x and y). Type of straight line represented by the modified system of equations is :

    Solution

    Given system of equations are \(\frac{3}{\mathrm x+y}+\frac{2}{\mathrm x-y}=2\) and \(\frac{9}{\mathrm x+y}-\frac{4}{\mathrm x-y}=1\).

    Given that \(u = \frac{1}{\mathrm x+y}\) and \(v = \frac{1}{\mathrm x-y}\)

    Then, the system of equations becomes

    3u + 2v = 2.  ............(1)

    And 9u – 4v = 1. ..........(2)

    Multiplying equation (1) by 2, we get

    6u + 4v = 4.  ..........(3)

    By adding equations (2) and (3), we get (9u – 4v) + (6u + 4v) = 1 + 4

    \(\Rightarrow\) 9u + 6u = 5 \(\Rightarrow\) 15 u = 5

    \(\Rightarrow\) \(u = \frac{5}{15}=\frac{1}{3}\)

    Now, putting \(u = \frac{1}{3}\) in equation (1), we get \(3\times \frac{1}{3}+2v = 2\)

    \(\Rightarrow \) 1 + 2v = 2 \(\Rightarrow \) 2v = 2 – 1 = 1

    \(\Rightarrow \) \(v = \frac{1}{2}\)

    Now, \(u = \frac{1}{3}\) but \(u = \frac{1}{\mathrm x+y}\)

    Therefore, \(\frac{1}{\mathrm x+y}=\frac{1}{3}\) \(\Rightarrow \mathrm x+y = 3\)  ............(4)

    And \(v=\frac{1}{2}\) but \(v = \frac{1}{\mathrm x-y}\) 

    Therefore, \(\frac{1}{\mathrm x-y}\) \(=\frac{1}{2}\) \(\Rightarrow \) x – y = 2. ........(5)

    After substituting the value of u and v, the original system of equations converts in modified system of equations.

    \(\therefore\) The modified system of equations is x + y = 3 and x – y = 2.

    Now, straight lines are x + y = 3 and x – y = 2.

    \(\Rightarrow \) y = –x + 3 and y = x – 2

    Hence, the slope of line x + y = 3 is \(m_1\) = –1. (By comparing y = mx + c with equations of line)

    Now, \(m_1m_2=-1\times 1 = -1\) which is condition that both lines are perpendicular.

  • Question 8
    1 / -0

    The length of the longest pole that can be kept in a room of dimension \(12m \times 9m\times 8m\) is

    Solution

    \(\because\) Room shape is cuboid and dimension of room is \(12m\times 9m\times 8 m\)

    \(\therefore\) \(l\) = 12m, b = 9m & h = 8m

    Height of longest pole is \(\sqrt{l^2+b^2+h^2}\) 

    \(=\sqrt{12^2+9^2+8^2}\)

    \(=\sqrt{144+81+64}\)

    \(=\sqrt{289}\) = 17 m

    Hence, the length of the longest pole that can be kept in a room of dimension \(12m\times 9m\times 8m\) is 17m.

  • Question 9
    1 / -0

    In a ΔABC, ∠C = 3∠B = 2(∠A+∠B). Then ∠A – ∠B + ∠C is

    Solution

    In a ΔABC, ∠C = 3∠B = 2(∠A + ∠B).

    \(\therefore\) 3∠B = 2(∠A + ∠B)

    \(\Rightarrow\) 3∠B = 2∠A + 2∠B

    \(\Rightarrow\) 3∠B – 2∠B = 2∠A

    \(\Rightarrow\) ∠B = 2∠A

    And ∠C = 3∠B = 6∠A       (\(\because\) ∠B = 2∠A)

    We know that sum of angles in a triangle is 180°.

    \(\therefore\) ∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180º

    \(\Rightarrow\) ∠A + 2∠A + 6∠A = 180º

    \(\Rightarrow\) 9∠A = 180º

    \(\Rightarrow\) ∠A = \(\frac{180^o}{9}=20^o\)

    Now, ∠B = 2∠A = 2 \(\times\) 20º = 40º

    And ∠C = 6∠A = 6 \(\times\) 20º = 120º

    ∠A − ∠B + ∠C = 20º − 40º + 120º = 140º − 40º = 100º

  • Question 10
    1 / -0

    \(\frac{1}{\sec\theta - \tan\theta} - \frac{1}{\cos\theta}\) = ?

    Solution

    We have to find the value of \(\frac{1}{\sec\theta-\tan\theta}-\frac{1}{\cos\theta}\)

    Now, \(\frac{1}{\sec\theta - \tan\theta}+\frac{1}{\sec\theta + \tan\theta}\) 

    \(=\frac{(\sec\theta + \tan\theta)+(\sec\theta - \tan\theta)}{(\sec\theta - \tan\theta)(\sec\theta + \tan\theta)}\) 

    \(=\frac{2\sec\theta}{\sec^2\theta - \tan^2\theta}\)  \((\because (a+b)(a-b) = a^2-b^2)\)

    \(=2\sec\theta = \frac{2}{\cos\theta}\) \(\left(\because \sec^2\theta -\tan^2\theta = 1 \,\&\, \sec\theta = \frac{1}{\cos\theta}\right) \)

    Hence, \(\frac{1}{\sec\theta - \tan\theta}+\frac{1}{\sec\theta + \tan\theta}\) \(=\frac{2}{\cos\theta}=\frac{1}{\cos\theta}+\frac{1}{\cos\theta}\)

    \(\Rightarrow \frac{1}{\sec\theta -\tan\theta}-\frac{1}{\cos\theta}\) \(=\frac{1}{\cos\theta}-\frac{1}{\sec\theta + \tan\theta}\)

  • Question 11
    1 / -0

    The observations 29, 32, 48, 50, x, x + 2, 72, 78, 84, 95 are arranged in ascending order. Median of the data is 63.

    The value of ‘x’ is :

    Solution

    Ascending order of observations is 29, 32, 48, 50, x, x+2, 72, 78, 84, 95.

    Total number of observations is 10 (even).

    Therefore, the median of the data is average of \(5^{th}\) & \(6^{th}\) observations.

    \(\Big(\because \frac{n}{2}=5, \frac{n}{2}+1=6\) and if n is even then median \(=\frac{\frac{n}{2}th \,observation+\left(\frac{n}{2}+1\right)th\,observation}{2}\Big)\)

    And \(5^{th}\) & \(6^{th}\) observations are x & x + 2 respectively.

    Therefore, median \(=\frac{\mathrm x+\mathrm x+2}{2}=\frac{2\mathrm x+2}{2}\) = x + 1.

    But given that median of the data is 63.

    Therefore, x + 1 = 63

    \(\Rightarrow\) x = 63 - 1 = 62

  • Question 12
    1 / -0

    The observations 29, 32, 48, 50, x, x + 2, 72, 78, 84, 95 are arranged in ascending order. Median of the data is 63.

    Find the value of x. After putting the value of ‘x’, observations when arranged in ascending order looks like:

    Solution

    Ascending order of observations is 29, 32, 48, 50, x, x+2, 72, 78, 84, 95.

    Total number of observations is 10 (even).

    Therefore, the median of the data is average of \(5^{th}\) & \(6^{th}\) observations.

    \(\Big(\because \frac{n}{2}=5, \frac{n}{2}+1=6\) and if n is even then median \(=\frac{\frac{n}{2}th \,observation+\left(\frac{n}{2}+1\right)th\,observation}{2}\Big)\)

    And \(5^{th}\) & \(6^{th}\) observations are x & x + 2 respectively.

    Therefore, median \(=\frac{\mathrm x+\mathrm x+2}{2}=\frac{2\mathrm x+2}{2}\) = x + 1.

    But given that median of the data is 63.

    Therefore, x + 1 = 63

    \(\Rightarrow\) x = 63 − 1 = 62.

    \(\therefore\) x + 2 = 62 + 2 = 64.

    Hence, the ascending order of the observations is as follows: 29, 32, 48, 50, 62, 64, 72, 78, 84, 95.

    (By putting x = 62)

  • Question 13
    1 / -0

    The observations 29, 32, 48, 50, x, x + 2, 72, 78, 84, 95 are arranged in ascending order. Median of the data is 63.

    The mean of given data is:

    Solution

    Ascending order of observations is 29, 32, 48, 50, x, x+2, 72, 78, 84, 95.

    Total number of observations is 10 (even).

    Therefore, the median of the data is average of \(5^{th}\) & \(6^{th}\) observations.

    \(\Big(\because \frac{n}{2}=5, \frac{n}{2}+1=6\) and if n is even then median \(=\frac{\frac{n}{2}th\,observation+\left(\frac{n}{2}+1\right)th\,observation}{2}\Big)\)

    And \(5^{th}\) & \(6^{th}\) observations are x & x + 2 respectively.

    Therefore, median \(=\frac{\mathrm x+\mathrm x+2}{2}\mathrm{=\frac{2x+2}{2}=x+1}\)

    But given that median of the data is 63.

    Therefore, x + 1 = 63

    \(\Rightarrow\) x = 63 − 1 = 62.

    \(\therefore\) x + 2 = 62 + 2 = 64.

    Hence, the ascending order of the observations is as follows: 29, 32, 48, 50, 62, 64, 72, 78, 84, 95. (By putting x = 62)

    \(\because\) Our observations are non-repeating.

    \(\therefore\) All observations have same frequency 1.

    There are total 10 observations.

    Therefore, sum of all frequency is \(\sum^{10}_{i=1} f_i = \sum^{10}_{i=1}1= 10\).

    And \(\sum f_i\mathrm x_=\sum1\,\mathrm x_i\) (\(\because\) All frequencies = 1)

    \(=\sum \mathrm x_i \) = 29 + 32 + 48 +50 + 62 + 64 + 72 + 78 + 84 + 95 = 614.

    Hence, the mean of observations \(=\frac{\sum f_i \mathrm x_i}{\sum f_i}=\frac{614}{10}=61.4\)

    Hence, the mean of observations is 61.4.

  • Question 14
    1 / -0

    The observations 29, 32, 48, 50, x, x + 2, 72, 78, 84, 95 are arranged in ascending order. Median of the data is 63.

    The mode of given data is:

    Solution

    Ascending order of observations is 29, 32, 48, 50, x, x+2, 72, 78, 84, 95.

    Total number of observations is 10 (even).

    Therefore, the median of the data is average of \(5^{th}\) & \(6^{th}\) observations.

    \(\Big(\because \frac{n}{2} = 5, \frac{n}{2}+ 1 = 6\) and if n is even then median \(=\frac{\frac{n}{2}th\,observation+\left(\frac{n}{2}+1\right)th\,observation}{2}\Big)\)

    And \(5^{th}\) & \(6^{th}\) observations are x & x + 2 respectively.

    Therefore, median \(=\frac{\mathrm x+\mathrm x+2}{2}=\frac{2\mathrm x+2}{2}\) = x + 1

    But given that median of the data is 63.

    Therefore, x + 1 = 63

    \(\Rightarrow\) x = 63 − 1 = 62.

    \(\therefore\) x + 2 = 62 + 2 = 64.

    Hence, the ascending order of the observations is as follows: 29, 32, 48, 50, 62, 64, 72, 78, 84, 95. (By putting x = 62)

    \(\because\) Our observations are non-repeating.

    \(\therefore\) All observations have same frequency 1.

    There are total 10 observations.

    Therefore, sum of all frequency is \(\sum^{10}_{i=1}f_i = \sum^{10}_{i=1}1=10\)

    And \(\sum f_i \mathrm x_i = \sum 1\mathrm x_i \) (\(\because \) All frequencies = 1)

    \(=\sum \mathrm x_i \) = 29 + 32 + 48 +50 + 62 + 64 + 72 + 78 + 84 + 95 = 614.

    Hence, the mean of observations \(=\frac{\sum f_i \mathrm x_i}{\sum f_i }= \frac{614}{10}=61.4\)

    Hence, the mean of observations is 61.4.

    We know that mode = 3 median – 2 mean.

    Therefore, mode of given data \(= 3\times 63 - 2\times 61.4\)

    \(=189 - 122.8 = 66.2\)

    (\(\because\) mean = 61.4 and median = 63)

  • Question 15
    1 / -0

    The observations 29, 32, 48, 50, x, x + 2, 72, 78, 84, 95 are arranged in ascending order. Median of the data is 63.

    If class-width of 6 is allowed to be taken to construct grouped distribution, how many class-intervals are possible?

    [Take 29–35, 35–41, ……, 89–95, 95–101]

    Solution

    \(\because\) 29 is smallest observation in given data, we are taking class-width = 6 and starts class interval from 29.

    It means our first class interval is 29 – 35.

    Greatest observation in given data is 95. It means we stop making class interval if 95 present in any class interval.

    \(\therefore\) Our class intervals are 29 – 35, 35 – 41, 41 – 47, 47 – 53, 53 – 59, 59 – 65, 65 – 71, 71 – 77, 77 – 83, 83 – 89, 89 – 95, 95 – 101.

    \(\therefore\) Total class intervals = 12.

    Solution

    Let the radius of the circle is r.

    Therefore, the area of the circle is \(\pi r^2\)

    After decreasing 30% radius of the circle

    The actual radius of the circle is \(r-\frac{30}{100}r\) \(=r-0.3r\) \(=0.7r\)

    The area of the circle after decreasing  \(=\pi(0.7r)^2\) \(=0.49\pi r^2\).

    Decreased area = Area of circle before decreasing – Area of circle after decreasing

    \(=\pi r^2 - 0.49\pi r^2\)

    \(=0.51\pi r^2 \) = 51% \(\times\) Area of circle before decreasing.

    Hence, 51% area is decreased if the radius of a circle is decreased by 30%.

  • Question 17
    1 / -0

    Fill in the blank:

    \(\pi\) is an __________ number.

    Solution

    Since, \(\pi\) = 3.141592653………. which is non-terminating and non-repeating decimal number.

    Hence, \(\pi\) is an irrational number.

  • Question 18
    1 / -0

    One card is drawn from a well-shuffled deck of 52 cards.

    The probability of getting a king of red suit is :

    Solution

    Total number of cars in the deck = 52.

    Total king cards are 4 in which 2 are black suited and 2 are red suited.

    Therefore, total number of king card which is red suited = 2.

    Probability of getting a king of red suit 

    \(=\frac{Total\,red\,suited\,king\,card}{Total\,number\,of\,cards\,in\,the\,deck}\)

    \(=\frac{2}{52}=\frac{1}{26}\)

  • Question 19
    1 / -0

    One card is drawn from a well-shuffled deck of 52 cards.

    The probability of not getting a king of red suit is :

    Solution

    Total number of cars in the deck = 52

    Total king cards are 4 in which 2 are black suited and 2 are red suited.

    Therefore, total number of king card which is red suited = 2.

    Probability of getting a king of red suit \(=\frac{Total\,red\,suited\,king\,card}{Total\,number\,of\,cards\,in\,the\,deck}\) \(=\frac{2}{52}=\frac{1}{26}\)

    The probability of not getting a king of red suit = 1 – probability of getting a king of red suit

    \(=1-\frac{1}{26}=\frac{25}{26}\)

  • Question 20
    1 / -0

    One card is drawn from a well-shuffled deck of 52 cards.

    The probability of getting a face card is :

    Solution

    Total number of cars in the deck = 52.

    Total number of face cards = \(3\times 4 = 12\) (\(\because\) Jack, Queen & king cards are face cards)

    Therefore, the probability of getting a face and \(=\frac{Total\,number\,of\,face\,card}{Total\,number\,of\,cards\,in\,the\,deck}\) \(=\frac{12}{52}=\frac{3}{13}\)

  • Question 21
    1 / -0

    One card is drawn from a well-shuffled deck of 52 cards.

    The probability of getting a red face card is :

    Solution

    Total number of cars in the deck = 52.

    Total number of red face card = 3 \(\times\) 2 = 6.

    Therefore, the probability of getting a red face card\(=\frac{Total\,number\,of\,red\,face\,cards}{Total\,number\,of\,cards\,in\,deck}\) \(=\frac{6}{52}=\frac{3}{26}\)

  • Question 22
    1 / -0

    One card is drawn from a well-shuffled deck of 52 cards.

    The probability of getting a spade is :

    Solution

    Total number of cars in the deck = 52.

    Total number of spade cards = 13.

    Therefore, the probability of getting a spade card \(=\frac{Total\,number\,of\,spade\,cards}{Total\,number\,of\,cards\,in\,the\,deck}\) \(=\frac{13}{52}=\frac{1}{4}\)

  • Question 23
    1 / -0

    Three coins are tossed simultaneously. The probability of getting exactly two heads is

    Solution

    Three coins are tossed simultaneously

    Therefore, the outcomes are {HHH, HHT, HTH, THH, HTT, THT, TTH, TTT}

    Hence, total outcomes = n(S) = 8.

    Let event E be the event of getting exactly two heads.

    Outcomes which are favorable to event E are {HHT, HTH, THH}.

    Total outcomes which is favorable to event E = n(E) = 3.

    Now, probability of getting exactly two heads \(=\frac{Total\,outcomes\,favourable\,to\,event\,E}{Total\,outcomes\,in\,experiment}\) \(=\frac{n(E)}{n(S)}=\frac{3}{8}\)

    Hence, the event of getting exactly two heads = \(\frac{3}{8}\)
