A bag contains 12 marbles out of which y are white.
(i)If one marble is drawn at random from the bag, what is the probability that it will be white marble?
(ii)If 6 more white marbles are put in the bag, the probability of drawing a white marble will double than in part (i), find y.(a) -

Here, total number of marbles = 12
Number of white marbles = y
(i) P(a white marble) = \(\frac { y }{ 12 } \)
(ii) Now, 6 more white marbles are added in the bag.
\(\therefore\)Total number Of marbles = 12 + 6 = 18
Number of white marbles = y + 6 .
\(\therefore\) P(a white marble) = \(\frac { y+6 }{ 18 } \)
According to the statement of the question, we have
\(\frac { y+6 }{ 18 } =2(\frac { y }{ 12 } )\)
\(\Rightarrow \frac { y+6 }{ 3 } =y\)
\(\Rightarrow \) 3y=y+6
\(\Rightarrow \) 2y=6
\(\Rightarrow \) y=3 -
Since the two dice are thrown simultarrously Total number Of outconrs = 6 x 6 = 36
Number of outconrs for getting same numbers on both dice = 6
\(\Rightarrow\)P(getting same number) = \(\frac { 6 }{ 36 } = \frac { 1 }{ 6 } \)
Now, P(getting same numbers) + P(getting different numbers) = 1
\(\Rightarrow \frac{ 1 } {6}\) + P(getting different numbers)= 1
\(\Rightarrow\)P(gerting different numbers) = 1-\(\frac {1} {6} = \frac {5} {6}\) -
Let G1, G2, G3 and B1, B2 be three girls and two boys respectively.
Since two children are selected at random, therefore the following are the possible groups:
B1B2, B1G1, B1G2, B1G3, B2G1, B2G2, B2G3, G1G2, G1G3, G2G3
Total number of cases = 10
Now, at least one boy is selected in the following ways:
B1B2, B1G1, B1G2, B1G3, B2G1, B2G2, B2G3
Total number of favourable cases = 7
\(\therefore\) Required probability = \(\frac {7} {10}\) -
There are 12 (4 x 3) possible outcomes as listed below
(1,2), (1,4), (1,6), (3, 2), (3,4), (3, 6), (5, 2), (5,4), (5,6), (7,2). (7, 4) (7, 6) (ii) (a) only (1, 6), (3,.4), (5, 2) given sum as 7
\(\therefore\)Required probability = \(\frac {2} {13}=\frac {1} {4}\)
(b) There is no even sum
\(\therefore\)Required probability= \(\frac {0} {12}=0\)
(c) All the sums are odd
\(\therefore\)Required probability =\(\frac {12} {12} =1\)
(d) only (3, 6), (5, 4), (5, 6), (7, 2). (7, 4) and (7, 6) gives sum as more than 7
\(\therefore\)Required probability = \(\frac {6} {12}\)
=\(\frac {1} {2}\)
