Answer:
Black balls = 5
Red balls = 5
Total balls = 10
CASE 1 Let red ball be drawn in first attempt.
$P(drawing\, red\, ball)=\frac{5}{10}=\frac{1}{2}$
Now two red balls are added in urn .
Now red balls = 7, black balls = 5
Total balls = 12
$P(drawing\, red\, ball)=\frac{7}{12}$
CASE 2
Let black ball be drawn in first attempt.
$P(drawing\, black\, ball)=\frac{5}{10}=\frac{1}{2}$
Now two black balls are added in urn .
Now red balls = 5, black balls = 7
Total balls = 12
$P(drawing\, red\, ball)=\frac{5}{12}$
the probability that the second ball is red =
$=\frac{1}{2}\times \frac{7}{12}+\frac{1}{2}\times \frac{5}{12}$
$= \frac{7}{24}+ \frac{5}{24}$
$= \frac{12}{24}=\frac{1}{2}$
Answer:
BAG 1 : Red balls =4 Black balls=4 Total balls = 8
BAG 2 : Red balls = 2 Black balls = 6 Total balls = 8
B1 : selecting bag 1
B2 : selecting bag 2
$P(B1)=P(B2)=\frac{1}{2}$
Let R be a event of getting red ball
$P(R|B1) = P(drawing\, \, red\, \, ball\, \, from \, first \, \, bag)= \frac{4}{8}=\frac{1}{2}$
$P(R|B2) = P(drawing\, \, red\, \, ball\, \, from \, second \, \, bag)= \frac{2}{8}=\frac{1}{4}$
probability that the ball is drawn from the first bag,
given that it is red is $P(B1|R)$.
Using Baye's theorem, we have
$P(B1|R) = \frac{P(B1).P(R|B1)}{P(B1).P(R|B1)+P(B2).P(R|B2)}$
$P(B1|R) = \frac{\frac{1}{2}\times \frac{1}{2}}{\frac{1}{2}\times \frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{2}\times \frac{1}{4}}$
$P(B1|R) =\frac{\frac{1}{4}}{\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{8}}$
$P(B1|R) =\frac{\frac{1}{4}}{\frac{3}{8}}$
$P(B1|R) = \frac{2}{3}$
Answer:
H : reside in hostel
D : day scholars
A : students who attain grade A
$P(H)=\frac{60}{100}=\frac{6}{10}=\frac{3}{5}$
$P(D)=\frac{40}{100}=\frac{4}{10}=\frac{2}{5}$
$P(A|H)=\frac{30}{100}=\frac{3}{10}$
$P(A|D)=\frac{20}{100}=\frac{2}{10}= \frac{1}{5}$
By Bayes theorem :
$P(H|A)=\frac{P(H).P(A|H)}{P(H).P(A|H)+P(D).P(A|D)}$
$P(H|A)=\frac{\frac{3}{5}\times \frac{3}{10}}{\frac{3}{5}\times \frac{3}{10}+\frac{2}{5}\times \frac{1}{5}}$
$P(H|A)=\frac{\frac{9}{50}}{\frac{9}{50}+\frac{2}{25}}$
$P(H|A)=\frac{\frac{9}{50}}{\frac{13}{50}}$
$P(H|A)=\frac{9}{13}$
Answer:
A : Student knows answer.
B : Student guess the answer
C : Answer is correct
$P(A)=\frac{3}{4}$ $P(B)=\frac{1}{4}$
$P(C|A)=1$
$P(C|B)=\frac{1}{4}$
By Bayes theorem :
$P(A|C)=\frac{P(A).P(C|A)}{P(A).P(C|A)+P(B).P(C|B)}$
$P(A|C)=\frac{\frac{3}{4}\times 1}{\frac{3}{4}\times 1+\frac{1}{4}\times \frac{1}{4}}$
$=\frac{\frac{3}{4}}{\frac{3}{4}+\frac{1}{16}}$ $=\frac{\frac{3}{4}}{\frac{13}{16}}$
$P(A|C)=\frac{12}{13}$
Answer:
A : Person selected is having the disease
B : Person selected is not having the disease.
C :Blood result is positive.
$P(A)= 0.1 \%=\frac{1}{1000}=0.001$
$P(B)= 1 -P(A)=1-0.001=0.999$
$P(C|A)=99\%=0.99$
$P(C|B)=0.5\%=0.005$
By Bayes theorem :
$P(A|C)=\frac{P(A).P(C|A)}{P(A).P(C|A)+P(B).P(C|B)}$
$=\frac{0.001\times 0.99}{0.001\times 0.99+0.999\times 0.005}$
$=\frac{0.00099}{0.00099+0.004995}$
$=\frac{0.00099}{0.005985}$ $=\frac{990}{5985}$
$=\frac{22}{133}$
Answer:
Given : A : chossing a two headed coin
B : chossing a biased coin
C : chossing a unbiased coin
$P(A)=P(B)=P(C)=\frac{1}{3}$
D : event that coin tossed show head.
$P(D|A)=1$
Biased coin that comes up heads $75^{o}/_{o}$ of the time.
$P(D|B)=\frac{75}{100}=\frac{3}{4}$
$P(D|C)=\frac{1}{2}$
$P(B|D)=\frac{P(B).P(D|B)}{P(B).P(D|B)+P(A).P(D|A)+P(C).P(D|C)}$
$P(B|D)=\frac{\frac{1}{3}\times 1}{\frac{1}{3}\times 1+\frac{1}{3}\times \frac{3}{4}+\frac{1}{3}\times \frac{1}{2}}$
$P(B|D)=\frac{\frac{1}{3}}{\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{6}}$
$P(B|D)=\frac{\frac{1}{3}}{\frac{9}{12}}$
$P(B|D)={\frac{1\times 12}{3\times 9}}$
$P(B|D)={\frac{4}{9}}$
Answer:
Let A : scooter drivers = 2000
B : car drivers = 4000
C : truck drivers = 6000
Total drivers = 12000
$P(A)=\frac{2000}{12000}=\frac{1}{6}=0.16$
$P(B)=\frac{4000}{12000}=\frac{1}{3}=0.33$
$P(C)=\frac{6000}{12000}=\frac{1}{2}=0.5$
D : the event that person meets with an accident.
$P(D|A)= 0.01$
$P(D|B)= 0.03$
$P(D|C)= 0.15$
$P(A|D)=\frac{P(A).P(D|A)}{P(B).P(D|B)+P(A).P(D|A)+P(C).P(D|C)}$
$P(A|D)= \frac{0.16\times 0.01}{0.16\times 0.01+0.33\times 0.03+0.5\times 0.15}$
$P(A|D)= \frac{0.0016}{0.0016+0.0099+0.075}$
$P(A|D)= \frac{0.0016}{0.0865}$
$P(A|D)= 0.019$
Answer:
A : Items produced by machine A $=60\%$
B : Items produced by machine B$=40\%$
$P(A)= \frac{60}{100}=\frac{3}{5}$
$P(B)= \frac{40}{100}=\frac{2}{5}$
X : Produced item found to be defective.
$P(X|A)= \frac{2}{100}=\frac{1}{50}$
$P(X|B)= \frac{1}{100}$
$P(B|X)= \frac{P(B).P(X|B)}{P(B).P(X|B)+P(A).P(X|A)}$
$P(B|X)= \frac{\frac{2}{5}\times \frac{1}{100}}{\frac{2}{5}\times \frac{1}{100}+\frac{3}{5}\times \frac{1}{50}}$
$P(B|X)= \frac{\frac{1}{250}}{\frac{1}{250}+\frac{3}{250}}$
$P(B|X)= \frac{\frac{1}{250}}{\frac{4}{250}}$
$P(B|X)= \frac{1}{4}$
Hence, the probability that defective item was produced by machine $B$ =
$P(B|X)= \frac{1}{4}$.
Answer:
A: the first groups will win
B: the second groups will win
$P(A)=0.6$
$P(B)=0.4$
X: Event of introducing a new product.
Probability of introducing a new product if the first group wins : $P(X|A)=0.7$
Probability of introducing a new product if the second group wins : $P(X|B)=0.3$
$P(B|X)= \frac{P(B).P(X|B)}{P(B).P(X|B)+P(A).P(X|A)}$
$p(B|X) = \frac{0.4\times 0.3}{0.4\times 0.3+0.6\times 0.7}$
$p(B|X) = \frac{0.12}{0.12+0.42}$
$p(B|X) = \frac{0.12}{0.54}$
$p(B|X) = \frac{12}{54}$
$p(B|X) = \frac{2}{9}$
Hence, the probability that the new product introduced was by the second group :
$p(B|X) = \frac{2}{9}$
Answer:
Let, A: Outcome on die is 5 or 6.
B: Outcome on die is 1,2,3,4
$P(A)=\frac{2}{6}=\frac{1}{3}$
$P(B)=\frac{4}{6}=\frac{2}{3}$
X: Event of getting exactly one head.
Probability of getting exactly one head when she tosses a coin three times : $P(X|A)=\frac{3}{8}$
Probability of getting exactly one head when she tosses a coin one time : $P(X|B)=\frac{1}{2}$
$P(B|X)= \frac{P(B).P(X|B)}{P(B).P(X|B)+P(A).P(X|A)}$
$P(B|X)= \frac{\frac{2}{3}\times \frac{1}{2}}{\frac{2}{3}\times \frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{3}\times \frac{3}{8}}$
$P(B|X)= \frac{\frac{1}{3}}{\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{8}}$
$P(B|X)= \frac{\frac{1}{3}}{\frac{11}{24}}$
$P(B|X)= \frac{1\times 24}{3\times 11}=\frac{8}{11}$
Hence, the probability that she threw $1,2,3$ or $4$ with the die =
$P(B|X)=\frac{8}{11}$
Answer:
Let A: time consumed by machine A $=50\%$
B: time consumed by machine B$=30\%$
C: time consumed by machine C $=20\%$
Total drivers = 12000
$P(A)=\frac{50}{100}=\frac{1}{2}$
$P(B)=\frac{30}{100}=\frac{3}{10}$
$P(C)=\frac{20}{100}=\frac{1}{5}$
D: Event of producing defective items
$P(D|A)= \frac{1}{100}$
$P(D|B)= \frac{5}{100}$
$P(D|C)= \frac{7}{100}$
$P(A|D)=\frac{P(A).P(D|A)}{P(B).P(D|B)+P(A).P(D|A)+P(C).P(D|C)}$
$P(A|D)=\frac{\frac{1}{2}\times \frac{1}{100}}{\frac{1}{2}\times \frac{1}{100}+\frac{3}{10}\times \frac{5}{100}+\frac{1}{5}\times \frac{7}{100}}$
$P(A|D)=\frac{\frac{1}{2}\times \frac{1}{100}}{\frac{1}{100} (\frac{1}{2}+\frac{3}{2}+\frac{7}{5})}$
$P(A|D)=\frac{\frac{1}{2}}{ (\frac{17}{5})}$
$P(A|D)= \frac{5}{34}$
Hence, the probability that defective item was produced by $A$ =
$P(A|D)= \frac{5}{34}$
Answer:
Let A : Event of choosing a diamond card.
B : Event of not choosing a diamond card.
$P(A)=\frac{13}{52}=\frac{1}{4}$
$P(B)=\frac{39}{52}=\frac{3}{4}$
X : The lost card.
If lost card is diamond then 12 diamond cards are left out of 51 cards.
Two diamond cards are drawn out of 12 diamond cards in $^{12}\textrm{C}_2$ ways.
Similarly, two cards are drawn out of 51 cards in $^{51}\textrm{C}_2$ ways.
Probablity of getting two diamond cards when one diamond is lost : $P(X|A)= \frac{^{12}\textrm{C}_2}{^{51}\textrm{C}_2}$
$P(X|A)=\frac{12!}{10!\times 2!}\times \frac{49!\times 2!}{51!}$
$P(X|A)=\frac{11\times 12}{50\times 51}$
$P(X|A)=\frac{22}{425}$
If lost card is not diamond then 13 diamond cards are left out of 51 cards.
Two diamond cards are drawn out of 13 diamond cards in $^{13}\textrm{C}_2$ ways.
Similarly, two cards are drawn out of 51 cards in $^{51}\textrm{C}_2$ ways.
Probablity of getting two diamond cards when one diamond is not lost : $P(X|B)= \frac{^{13}\textrm{C}_2}{^{51}\textrm{C}_2}$
$P(X|B)=\frac{13!}{11!\times 2!}\times \frac{49!\times 2!}{51!}$
$P(X|B)=\frac{13\times 12}{50\times 51}$
$P(X|B)=\frac{26}{425}$
The probability of the lost card being a diamond : $P(B|X)$
$P(B|X)= \frac{P(B).P(X|B)}{P(B).P(X|B)+P(A).P(X|A)}$
$P(B|X)= \frac{\frac{1}{4}\times \frac{22}{425}}{\frac{1}{4}\times \frac{22}{425}+\frac{3}{4}\times \frac{26}{425}}$
$P(B|X)= \frac{\frac{11}{2}}{25}$
$P(B|X)= \frac{11}{50}$
Hence, the probability of the lost card being a diamond :
$P(B|X)= \frac{11}{50}$
(A) $\frac{4}{5}$
(B) $\frac{1}{2}$
C) $\frac{1}{5}$
(D) $\frac{2}{5}$
Answer:
Let A : A speaks truth
B : A speaks false
$P(A)=\frac{4}{5}$
$P(B)=1-\frac{4}{5}=\frac{1}{5}$
X : Event that head appears.
A coin is tossed , outcomes are head or tail.
Probability of getting head whether A speaks thruth or not is $\frac{1}{2}$
$P(X|A)=P(X|B)=\frac{1}{2}$
$P(A|X)= \frac{P(A).P(X|A)}{P(B).P(X|B)+P(A).P(X|A)}$
$P(A|X)= \frac{\frac{4}{5}\times \frac{1}{2}}{\frac{4}{5}\times \frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{5}\times \frac{1}{2}}$
$P(A|X)= \frac{\frac{4}{5}}{\frac{4}{5}+\frac{1}{5}}$
$P(A|X)= \frac{\frac{4}{5}}{\frac{1}{1}}$
$P(A|X)={\frac{4}{5}}$
The probability that actually there was head is $P(A|X)={\frac{4}{5}}$
Hence, option A is correct.
Question 14: If $A$ and $B$ are two events such that $A\subset B$ and $P(B)\neq 0,$ then which of the following is correct?
(A) $P(A\mid B)=\frac{P(B)}{P(A)}$
(B) $P(A\mid B)< P(A)$
(C) $P(A\mid B)\geq P(A)$
(D) None of these
Answer:
If $A\subset B$ and $P(B)\neq 0,$then
$\Rightarrow \, \, \, (A\cap B) = A$
Also, $P(A)< P(B)$
$P(A|B)=\frac{P(A\cap B)}{P(B)}=\frac{P(A)}{P(B)}$
We know that $P(B)\leq 1$
$1\leq \frac{1}{P(B)}$
$P(A)\leq \frac{P(A)}{P(B)}$
$P(A)\leq P(A|B)$
Hence, we can see option C is correct.

Hello Pruthvi,
Taking a drop year to reappear for the Karnataka Common Entrance Test (KCET) is a well-defined process. As a repeater, you are fully eligible to take the exam again to improve your score and secure a better rank for admissions.
The main procedure involves submitting a new application for the KCET through the official Karnataka Examinations Authority (KEA) website when registrations open for the next academic session. You must pay the required application fee and complete all formalities just like any other candidate. A significant advantage for you is that you do not need to retake your 12th board exams. Your previously secured board marks in the qualifying subjects will be used again. Your new KCET rank will be calculated by combining these existing board marks with your new score from the KCET exam. Therefore, your entire focus during this year should be on preparing thoroughly for the KCET to achieve a higher score.

Yes, you can switch from Science in Karnataka State Board to Commerce in CBSE for 12th. You will need a Transfer Certificate from your current school and meet the CBSE school’s admission requirements. Since you haven’t studied Commerce subjects like Accountancy, Economics, and Business Studies, you may need to catch up before or during 12th. Not all CBSE schools accept direct admission to 12th from another board, so some may ask you to join Class 11 first. Make sure to check the school’s rules and plan your subject preparation.
