Probability Class 12 Chapter 13-Miscellaneous Exercise

Question:1(i) A and B are two events such thatP(A)\neq 0. Find P(B\mid A), if

A is a subset of B

Answer:

A and B are two events such thatP(A)\neq 0.

A\subset B

\Rightarrow \, \, \, \, A\cap B=A

P(A\cap B)=P(B\cap A)=P(A)

P(B|A)=\frac{P(B\cap A)}{P(A)}

P(B|A)=\frac{P( A)}{P(A)}

P(B|A)=1

Question:1(ii) A and B are two events such that P(A)\neq 0. Find P(B\mid A), if

A\cap B=\phi

Answer:

A and B are two events such thatP(A)\neq 0.

P(A\cap B)=P(B\cap A)=0

P(B|A)=\frac{P(B\cap A)}{P(A)}

P(B|A)=\frac{0}{P(A)}

P(B|A)=0

Question:2(i) A couple has two children,

Find the probability that both children are males, if it is known that at least one of the children is male.

Answer:

A couple has two children,

sample space =\left \{ (b,b),(g,g),(b,g),(g,b) \right \}

Let A be both children are males and B is at least one of the children is male.

(A\cap B)=\left \{ (b,b) \right \}

P(A\cap B)=\frac{1}{4}

P(A)=\frac{1}{4}

P(B)=\frac{3}{4}

P(A|B)=\frac{P(A\cap B)}{P(B)}

P(A|B)=\frac{\frac{1}{4}}{\frac{3}{4}}=\frac{1}{3}

Question:2(ii) A couple has two children,

Find the probability that both children are females, if it is known that the elder child is a female.

Answer:

A couple has two children,

sample space =\left \{ (b,b),(g,g),(b,g),(g,b) \right \}

Let A be both children are females and B be the elder child is a female.

(A\cap B)=\left \{ (g,g) \right \}

P(A\cap B)=\frac{1}{4}

P(A)=\frac{1}{4}

P(B)=\frac{2}{4}

P(A|B)=\frac{P(A\cap B)}{P(B)}

P(A|B)=\frac{\frac{1}{4}}{\frac{2}{4}}=\frac{1}{2}

Question:3 Suppose that 5^{o}/_{o} of men and 0.25^{o}/_{o} of women have grey hair. A grey haired person is selected at random. What is the probability of this person being male? Assume that there are equal number of males and females.

Answer:

We have 5^{o}/_{o} of men and 0.25^{o}/_{o} of women have grey hair.

Percentage of people with grey hairs =(5+0.25)\%=5.25\%

The probability that the selected haired person is male :

=\frac{5}{5.25}=\frac{20}{21}

Question:4 Suppose that 90^{o}/_{o} of people are right-handed. What is the probability that at most 6 of a random sample of 10 people are right-handed?

Answer:

90^{o}/_{o} of people are right-handed.

P(right-handed)=\frac{9}{10}

P(left-handed)=q=1-\frac{9}{10}=\frac{1}{10}

at most 6 of a random sample of 10 people are right-handed.

the probability that more than 6 of a random sample of 10 people are right-handed is given by,

^{10}C_rP^{r}q^{10-r}

=\sum_{T}^{10}^{10} C_r\frac{9}{10}^r .(\frac{1}{10})^{10-r}

the probability that at most 6 of a random sample of 10 people are right-handed is given by

=1-\sum_{T}^{10}^{10}C_r .\frac{9}{10}^r .(\frac{1}{10})^{10-r}

Question:5(i) An urn contains 25 balls of which 10 balls bear a mark 'X' and the remaining 15 bear a mark 'Y' A ball is drawn at random from the urn, its mark is noted down and it is replaced. If 6 balls are drawn in this way, find the probability that

all will bear 'X' mark.

Answer:

Total balls in urn = 25

Balls bearing mark 'X' =10

Balls bearing mark 'Y' =15

P(ball\, \, bearing\, mark\, 'X')=\frac{10}{25}=\frac{2}{5}

P(ball\, \, bearing\, mark\, 'Y')=\frac{15}{25}=\frac{3}{5}

6 balls are drawn with replacement.

Let Z be a random variable that represents a number of balls with Y mark on them in the trial.

Z has a binomial distribution with n=6.

P(Z=z)=^nC_Z P^{n-Z}q^Z

P(Z=0)=^6C_0 (\frac{2}{5})^{6} \frac{3}{5}^0

P(Z=0)=^6C_0 (\frac{2}{5})^{6}

Question:5(ii) An urn contains 25 balls of which 10 balls bear a mark 'X' and the remaining 15 bear a mark 'Y'. A ball is drawn at random from the urn, its mark is noted down and it is replaced. If 6 balls are drawn in this way, find the probability that

not more than 2 will bear 'Y' mark.

Answer:

Total balls in urn = 25

Balls bearing mark 'X' =10

Balls bearing mark 'Y' =15

P(ball\, \, bearing\, mark\, 'X')=\frac{10}{25}=\frac{2}{5}

P(ball\, \, bearing\, mark\, 'Y')=\frac{15}{25}=\frac{3}{5}

6 balls are drawn with replacement.

Let Z be random variable that represents number of balls with Y mark on them in trial.

Z has binomail distribution with n=6.

P(Z=z)=^nC_Z P^{n-Z}q^Z

P(not\, more\, than\, 2\, bear\, Y) =P(Z\leq 2)

=P(Z=0)+P(Z=1)+P(Z=2)

=^6C_0 (\frac{2}{5})^{6} (\frac{3}{5})^0+^6C_1 (\frac{2}{5})^{5} (\frac{3}{5})^1+^6C_2 (\frac{2}{5})^{4} (\frac{3}{5})^2

= (\frac{2}{5})^{6} +6 (\frac{2}{5})^{5} (\frac{3}{5})^1+15 (\frac{2}{5})^{4} (\frac{3}{5})^2

= (\frac{2}{5})^{4} [(\frac{2}{5})^{2}+6 (\frac{2}{5}) (\frac{3}{5})+15(\frac{3}{5})^2]

= (\frac{2}{5})^{4} [\frac{4}{25}+\frac{36}{25}+\frac{135}{25}]

= (\frac{2}{5})^{4} [\frac{175}{25}]

= (\frac{2}{5})^{4} [7]

Question:5(iii) An urn contains 25 balls of which 10 balls bear a mark 'X' and the remaining 15 bear a mark 'Y'. A ball is drawn at random from the urn, its mark is noted down and it is replaced. If 6 balls are drawn in this way, find the probability that

at least one ball will bear 'Y' mark.

Answer:

P(atleast\, one\, bear\, \, Y\, mark) =P(Z\geq 1)=1-P(Z=0)

=1-(\frac{2}{5})^6

Question:5(iv) An urn contains 25 balls of which 10 balls bear a mark 'X' and the remaining 15 bear a mark 'Y'. A ball is drawn at random from the urn, its mark is noted down and it is replaced. If 6 balls are drawn in this way, find the probability that

the number of balls with 'X' mark and 'Y' mark will be equal.

Answer:

P(equal\, to\, the \, number\, of\, balls \, with \, X \, mark \, and\, Y \, mark )=P(Z=3)

P(Z=3)=^6C_3.(\frac{2}{5})^2.(\frac{3}{5})^3

P(Z=3)=\frac{20\times 8\times 27}{15625}

P(Z=3)=\frac{864}{3125}

Question:6 In a hurdle race, a player has to cross 10 hurdles. The probability that he will clear each hurdle is \frac{5}{6} . What is the probability that he will knock down fewer than 2 hurdles?

Answer:

Let p and q respectively be probability that the player will clear and knock down the hurdle.

p=\frac{5}{6}

q=1-p=1-\frac{5}{6}=\frac{1}{6}

Let X represent random variable that represent number of times the player will knock down the hurdle.

P(Z=z)=^nC_Z P^{n-Z}q^Z

P(Z< 2)=P(Z=0)+P(Z=1)

=^{10}C_0 .( \frac{5}{6})^{10}.( \frac{1}{6})^{0}+^{10}C_1 .( \frac{5}{6})^{9}.( \frac{1}{6})^{1}

=( \frac{5}{6})^{10}+10.( \frac{5}{6})^{9}.( \frac{1}{6})

=( \frac{5}{6})^{9}( \frac{5}{6}+10\times . \frac{1}{6})

=( \frac{5}{6})^{9} \times \frac{5}{2}

=\frac{5^1^0}{2\times 6^9}

Question:7 A die is thrown again and again until three sixes are obtained. Find the probability of obtaining the third six in the sixth throw of the die.

Answer:

Probability of 6 in a throw of die =P

P=\frac{1}{6}

q=1-P=1-\frac{1}{6}=\frac{5}{6}

Probability that 2 sixes come in first five throw of die :

=^5C_2 (\frac{5}{6})^3 (\frac{1}{6})^2

=\frac{10\times 5^3}{6^5}

Probability that third six comes in sixth throw :

=\frac{10\times 5^3}{6^5}\times \frac{1}{6}

=\frac{10\times 125}{6^6}

=\frac{1250}{23328}

Question:8 If a leap year is selected at random, what is the chance that it will contain 53 tuesdays?

Answer:

In a leap year, there are 366 days.

In 52 weeks, there are 52 Tuesdays.

The probability that a leap year will have 53 Tuesday is equal to the probability that the remaining 2 days are Tuesday.

The remaining 2 days can be :

1. Monday and Tuesday

2. Tuesday and Wednesday

3. Wednesday and Thursday

4. Thursday and Friday

5.friday and Saturday

6.saturday and Sunday

7.sunday and Monday

Total cases = 7.

Favorable cases = 2

Probability of having 53 Tuesday in a leap year = P.

P=\frac{2}{7}

Question:9 An experiment succeeds twice as often as it fails. Find the probability that in the next six trials, there will be atleast 4 successes.

Answer:

Probability of success is twice the probability of failure.

Let probability of failure be X

then Probability of success = 2X

Sum of probabilities is 1.

\therefore \, \, \, X+2X=1

\Rightarrow \, \, \, 3X=1

\Rightarrow \, \, \, X=\frac{1}{3}

Let P=\frac{1}{3} and q=\frac{2}{3}

Let X be random variable that represent the number of success in six trials.

\therefore \, \, \, \, P(X=x)=^nC_x.q^{n-x}.p^x

P(X\geq 4)=P(X=4)+P(X=5)+P(X=6)

=^6C_4 \left [ \frac{2}{3} \right ]^4\left [ \frac{1}{3} \right ]^2+^6C_5 \left [ \frac{2}{3} \right ]^5\left [ \frac{1}{3} \right ]^1+^6C_6 \left [ \frac{2}{3} \right ]^6\left [ \frac{1}{3} \right ]^0

=\frac{15\times 2^4}{3^6}+\frac{6\times 2^5}{3^6}+\frac{2^6}{3^6}

=\frac{ 2^6}{3^6}(15+12+4)

=\frac{ 2^6}{3^6}(31)

=\frac{31}{9}\left [ \frac{2}{3} \right ]^4

Question:10 How many times must a man toss a fair coin so that the probability of having at least one head is more than 90^{o}/_{o} ?

Answer:

Let the man toss coin n times.

Probability of getting head in first toss = P

P=\frac{1}{2}

q=\frac{1}{2}

\therefore \, \, \, \, P(X=x)=^nC_x.q^{n-x}.p^x

=^nC_x.\left ( \frac{1}{2} \right )^{n-x}.\left ( \frac{1}{2} \right )^x

P(getting\, atleast\, one\, head)> \frac{90}{100}

P(X\geq 1)> 0.9

1-P(X=0)> 0.9

1-^nC_0 \frac{1}{2^n}> 0.9

^nC_0 \frac{1}{2^n}< 0.1

\frac{1}{2^n}< 0.1

\frac{1}{0.1}< 2^n

10< 2^n

The minimum value to satisfy the equation is 4.

The man should toss a coin 4 or more times.

Question:11 In a game, a man wins a rupee for a six and loses a rupee for any other number when a fair die is thrown. The man decided to throw a die thrice but to quit as and when he gets a six. Find the expected value of the amount he wins / loses.

Answer:

In a throw of die,

probability of getting six = P

P=\frac{1}{6}

probability of not getting six = q

q=1-P=1-\frac{1}{6}=\frac{5}{6}

There are three cases :

1. Gets six in the first throw, required probability is \frac{1}{6}

The amount he will receive is Re. 1

2.. Does not gets six in the first throw and gets six in the second throw, then the probability

=\frac{5}{6}\times \frac{1}{6}=\frac{5}{36}

The amount he will receive is - Re.1+ Re.1=0

3. Does not gets six in first 2 throws and gets six in the third throw, then the probability

=\frac{5}{6}\times\frac{5}{6}\times \frac{1}{6}=\frac{25}{216}

Amount he will receive is -Re.1 - Re.1+ Re.1= -1

Expected value he can win :

=1\times \frac{1}{6}+0\times \frac{5}{36}+(-1)\times \frac{25}{216}

= \frac{1}{6}-\frac{25}{216}

= \frac{11}{216}

Question:12(i) Suppose we have four boxes A,B,C and D containing coloured marbles as given below:

One of the boxes has been selected at random and a single marble is drawn from it. If the marble is red, what is the probability that it was drawn from box A ?

Answer:

'

Let R be the event of drawing red marble.

Let E_A,E_B,E_C respectively denote the event of selecting box A, B, C.

Total marbles = 40

Red marbles =15

P(R)=\frac{15}{40}=\frac{3}{8}

Probability of drawing red marble from box A is P(E_A|R)

P(E_A|R)=\frac{P(E_A\cap R)}{P(R)}

=\frac{\frac{1}{40}}{\frac{3}{8}}

=\frac{1}{15}

Question:12(ii) Suppose we have four boxes A,B,C and D containing coloured marbles as given below:

One of the boxes has been selected at random and a single marble is drawn from it. If the marble is red, what is the probability that it was drawn from box B?

Answer:

Let R be event of drawing red marble.

Let E_A,E_B,E_C respectivly denote event of selecting box A,B,C.

Total marbles = 40

Red marbles =15

P(R)=\frac{15}{40}=\frac{3}{8}

Probability of drawing red marble from box B is P(E_B|R)

P(E_B|R)=\frac{P(E_B\cap R)}{P(R)}

=\frac{\frac{6}{40}}{\frac{3}{8}}

=\frac{2}{5}

Question:12(iii) Suppose we have four boxes A,B,C and D containing coloured marbles as given below:

One of the boxes has been selected at random and a single marble is drawn from it. If the marble is red, what is the probability that it was drawn from box C?

Answer:

Let R be event of drawing red marble.

Let E_A,E_B,E_C respectivly denote event of selecting box A,B,C.

Total marbles = 40

Red marbles =15

P(R)=\frac{15}{40}=\frac{3}{8}

Probability of drawing red marble from box C is P(E_C|R)

P(E_C|R)=\frac{P(E_C\cap R)}{P(R)}

=\frac{\frac{8}{40}}{\frac{3}{8}}

=\frac{8}{15}

Question:13 Assume that the chances of a patient having a heart attack is 40^{o}/_{o}. It is also assumed that a meditation and yoga course reduce the risk of heart attack by 30^{o}/_{o} and prescription of certain drug reduces its chances by 25^{o}/_{o}.At a time a patient can choose any one of the two options with equal probabilities. It is given that after going through one of the two options the patient selected at random suffers a heart attack. Find the probability that the patient followed a course of meditation and yoga?

Answer:

Let A,E1, E2 respectively denote the event that a person has a heart break, selected person followed the course of yoga and meditation , and the person adopted

the drug prescription.

\therefore \, \, \, \, P(A)=0.40

\therefore \, \, \, \, P(E1)=P(E2)=\frac{1}{2}

P(A|E1)=0.40\times 0.70=0.28

P(A|E2)=0.40\times 0.75=0.30

the probability that the patient followed a course of meditation and yoga is P(E1,A)

P(E1,A)=\frac{P(E1).P(E1|A)}{P(E1).P(E1|A)+P(E2).P(E2|A)}

P(E1,A)=\frac{0.5\times 0.28}{0.5\times 0.28 + 0.5\times 0.30}

=\frac{14}{29}

Question:14 If each element of a second order determinant is either zero or one, what is the probability that the value of the determinant is positive? (Assume that the individual entries of the determinant are chosen independently, each value being assumed with probability \frac{1}{2} ).

Answer:

Total number of determinant of second order with each element being 0 or 1 is 2^4=16

The values of determinant is positive in the following cases \begin{bmatrix} 1 & 0\\ 0 & 1\end{bmatrix}, \begin{bmatrix} 1 & 1\\ 0 & 1\end{bmatrix}, \begin{bmatrix} 1 & 0\\ 1 & 1\end{bmatrix}

Probability is

=\frac{3}{16}

Question:15(i) An electronic assembly consists of two subsystems, say, A and B. From previous testing procedures, the following probabilities are assumed to be known:

P(A fails) =0.2

P(B fails alone) = 0.15

P(A and B fail) = 0.15

Evaluate the following probabilities

P(A \; fails\mid B\; has\; failed)

Answer:

Let event in which A fails and B fails be E_A,E_B

P(E_A)=0.2

P(E_A\, and \, E_B)=0.15

P(B\, fails\, alone)=P(E_B)-P(E_A\, and\, E_B)

\Rightarrow \, \, \, 0.15=P(E_B)-0.15

\Rightarrow \, \, \, P(E_B)=0.3

P(E_A|E_B)=\frac{P(E_A\cap E_B)}{P(E_B)}

=\frac{0.15}{0.3}=0.5

Question:15(ii) An electronic assembly consists of two subsystems, say, A and B. From previous testing procedures, the following probabilities are assumed to be known:

P(A fails) = 0.2

P(B fails alone) = 0.15

P(A and B fail) = 0.15

Evaluate the following probabilities

P(A\; fails \; alone)

Answer:

Let event in which A fails and B fails be E_A,E_B

P(E_A)=0.2

P(E_A\, and \, E_B)=0.15

P(B\, fails\, alone)=P(E_B)-P(E_A\, and\, E_B)

\Rightarrow \, \, \, 0.15=P(E_B)-0.15

\Rightarrow \, \, \, P(E_B)=0.3

P(A\, fails\, \, alone)=P(E_A)-P(E_A\, and\, E_B)

=0.2-0.15=0.05

Question:16 Bag I contains 3 red and 4 black balls and Bag II contains 4 red and 5 black balls. One ball is transferred from Bag I to Bag II and then a ball is drawn from Bag II. The ball so drawn is found to be red in colour. Find the probability that the transferred ball is black.

Answer:

Let E1 and E2 respectively denote the event that red ball is transfered from bag 1 to bag 2 and a black ball is transfered from bag 1 to bag2.

P(E1)=\frac{3}{7} and P(E2)=\frac{4}{7}

Let A be the event that ball drawn is red.

When a red ball is transfered from bag 1 to bag 2.

P(A|E1)=\frac{5}{10}=\frac{1}{2}

When a black ball is transfered from bag 1 to bag 2.

P(A|E2)=\frac{4}{10}=\frac{2}{5}

P(E2|A)=\frac{P(E2).P(A|E2)}{P(E2).P(A|E2)+P(E1).P(A|E1)}

=\frac{\frac{4}{7}\times \frac{2}{5}}{\frac{4}{7}\times \frac{2}{5}+\frac{3}{7}\times \frac{1}{2}}

=\frac{16}{31}

Choose the correct answer of the following:

(A) A\subset B

(B) B\subset A

(C) B=\phi

(D) A=\phi

Answer:

A and B are two events such that P(A\neq 0) andP(B\mid A)=1,

P(B|A)=\frac{P(B\cap A)}{P(A)}

1=\frac{P(B\cap A)}{P(A)}

P(B\cap A)=P(A)

\Rightarrow \, \, \, A\subset B

Option A is correct.

Question:18 If P(A\mid B)> P(A), then which of the following is correct :

(A) P(B\mid A)< P(B)

(B) P(A\cap B)< P(A).P(B)

(C) P(B\mid A)> P(B)

(D)P(B\mid A)= P(B)

Answer:

P(A\mid B)> P(A)

\Rightarrow \, \, \frac{P(A\cap B)}{P(B)}> P(A)

\Rightarrow \, \, P(A\cap B)> P(A).P(B)

\Rightarrow \, \, \frac{P(A\cap B)}{P(A)}> P(B)

\Rightarrow \, \, P(B|A)> P(B)

Option C is correct.

Question:19 If A and B are any two events such that P(A)+P(B)-P(A \; and\; B)=P(A), then

(A) P(B\mid A)=1

(B) P(A\mid B)=1

(C) P(B\mid A)=0

(D) P(A\mid B)=0

Answer:

P(A)+P(B)-P(A \; and\; B)=P(A),

P(A)+P(B)-P(A\cap B)=P(A)

\Rightarrow \, \, \, P(B)-P(A\cap B)=0

\Rightarrow \, \, \, P(B)=P(A\cap B)

P(A|B)=\frac{P(A\cap B)}{P(B)}=\frac{P(B)}{P(B)}=1

Hello there! Thanks for reaching out to us at Careers360.

Ah, you're looking for CBSE quarterly question papers for mathematics, right? Those can be super helpful for exam prep.

Unfortunately, CBSE doesn't officially release quarterly papers - they mainly put out sample papers and previous years' board exam papers. But don't worry, there are still some good options to help you practice!

Have you checked out the CBSE sample papers on their official website? Those are usually pretty close to the actual exam format. You could also look into previous years' board exam papers - they're great for getting a feel for the types of questions that might come up.

If you're after more practice material, some textbook publishers release their own mock papers which can be useful too.

Let me know if you need any other tips for your math prep. Good luck with your studies!

i have taken admission in clg after my campartment exam in chemistry along with the neet 2025 preperation but unfortunately i again got campartment after doing all this preparation i got 15 marks only now I can't able to think what should I do next.

It's understandable to feel disheartened after facing a compartment exam, especially when you've invested significant effort. However, it's important to remember that setbacks are a part of life, and they can be opportunities for growth.

Possible steps:

  1. Re-evaluate Your Study Strategies:

    • Identify Weak Areas: Pinpoint the specific topics or concepts that caused difficulties.
    • Seek Clarification: Reach out to teachers, tutors, or online resources for additional explanations.
    • Practice Regularly: Consistent practice is key to mastering chemistry.

  2. Consider Professional Help:

    • Tutoring: A tutor can provide personalized guidance and support.
    • Counseling: If you're feeling overwhelmed or unsure about your path, counseling can help.

  3. Explore Alternative Options:

    • Retake the Exam: If you're confident in your ability to improve, consider retaking the chemistry compartment exam.
    • Change Course: If you're not interested in pursuing chemistry further, explore other academic options that align with your interests.

  4. Focus on NEET 2025 Preparation:

    • Stay Dedicated: Continue your NEET preparation with renewed determination.
    • Utilize Resources: Make use of study materials, online courses, and mock tests.

  5. Seek Support:

    • Talk to Friends and Family: Sharing your feelings can provide comfort and encouragement.
    • Join Study Groups: Collaborating with peers can create a supportive learning environment.

Remember: This is a temporary setback. With the right approach and perseverance, you can overcome this challenge and achieve your goals.

I hope this information helps you.
