The number lock of a suitcase has four wheels, each labelled with 10 digits.i.e., from 0 to 9. The lock opens with a sequence of four digits with no repeats. What is the probability of a person getting the right sequence to open the suitcase?
(a) -
A single letter is selected at random from the word 'PROBABILITY', then find the probability that letter is vowel.
(a) -
Check whether the following probabilities P(A)=0.3, P(B)=0.65 and \(P(A\cup B)=7\) are consistently defined.
(a) -
If A and B are two events such that P(A) = \(\frac { 1 }{ 4 } \) P(B) = \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 } \) and \(P(A\cap B)=\frac { 1 }{ 8 } \) .Then , find P ( not A and not B).
(a) -
An experiiment consists of rolling a die and then tossing a coin, once, if the number on the die is even. If the number in the die is odd, then coin is tossed twice. Write the sample space for this experiment.

When the digits are not repeated, then first place may have one of 10 digits, the second 9, third 8 and fourth 7. Number of 4-digit numbers, n(S)=10 x 9 x 8 x 7 = 5040. Now lock can be opened only in 1 way.
\(\therefore\) n(E) = 1
Hence, probability of opening the lock = \(\frac { n(E) }{ n(S) } =\frac { 1 }{ 5040 } \) -
There are 11 letters in the word PROBABILITY.
Since, a letter is selected randomly, therefore the possible outcomes are P, R, O, B, A, I, L, T, Y.
But here, outcomes are not equally likely
as P(letter P) = \(\frac { 1 }{ 11 } ;\) P (letter R) = \(\frac { 1 }{ 11 } \)
P(letter O)= \(\frac { 1 }{ 11 } ;\) P (letter B) = \(\frac { 2 }{ 11 } \)
[\(\because \) B repeated twice in the word]
P(letter A) = \(\frac { 1 }{ 11 } ;\) P(letter I) = \(\frac { 2 }{ 11 } \)
P(letter L) = \(\frac { 1 }{ 11 } ;\) P(letter T) = \(\frac { 1 }{ 11 } \)
and P(letter Y) = \(\frac { 1 }{ 11 } \)
Now, let E be event of getting a vowel. Then outcomes favourable to E are A, I and O.
\(\Rightarrow \) E={A,I,O}
Now,\(P(E)=P(A)+P(I)+P(O)\)
[by aximatixc approach to probability]
= \(\frac { 1 }{ 11 } +\frac { 2 }{ 11 } +\frac { 1 }{ 11 } =\frac { 4 }{ 11 } \) -
Ans.Yes.
-
P( not A and not B) = \(P(\overline { A } \cap \overline { B } )\)
\(=P(\overline { A\cup B } )=1-P(A\cup B)\)
\(=1-[P(A)+P(B)-P(A\cap B)]\)
\(=1-\left[ \frac { 1 }{ 4 } +\frac { 1 }{ 2 } -\frac { 1 }{ 8 } \right] =1-\left[ \frac { 2+4-1 }{ 8 } \right] \)
\(=1-\frac { 5 }{ 8 } =\frac { 3 }{ 8 } \) -
It is a two stage experiment. When a die is rolled, then it may show up any one of the six number 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6.
When the die shows up an odd number a coin is toasted twice and hence, corresponding to each of 1, 3 and 5, there are four possibilities.
When the die shows up an even number, a coin is tossed once and hence, corresponding to each of 2,4 and 6, there are only two possibilities.
Hence, the sample space is
S={2H,2T,4H,4T,6H,6T,1HH,1HT,1TH,1TT,3HH,3HT3TH,3TT,5HH,5HT,5TH,5TT}
