A pair of dice is thrown. It is given that the sum of numbers appearing on both dice is an even number. Find the probability that the number appearing on at least one die is 3.
Show answer & solution
Answer:185
Let E: sum is even, F: at least one die shows 3. Sum is even when both numbers are odd or both even: 9+9=18 outcomes, so P(E)=3618.
E∩F={(1,3),(3,1),(3,3),(3,5),(5,3)}, so P(E∩F)=365.
Probabilities of A and B solving a specific problem are 32 and 53, respectively. If both of them try independently to solve the problem, then find the probability that the problem is solved.
Show answer & solution
Answer:1513
P(A fails) =31, P(B fails) =52.
Since they work independently, P(both fail) =31×52=152.
Write the cartesian equation of the line PQ passing through points P(2,2,1) and Q(5,1,−2). Hence, find the y-coordinate of the point on the line PQ whose z-coordinate is −2.

At the start of a cricket match, a coin is tossed and the team winning the toss has the opportunity to choose to bat or bowl. Such a coin is unbiased with equal probabilities of getting head and tail. Based on the above information, answer the following questions : (a) If such a coin is tossed 2 times, then find the probability distribution of number of tails. (2) (b) Find the probability of getting at least one head in three tosses of such a coin. (2)
Show answer & solution
Answer: (a) X = number of tails: X = 0, 1, 2 with P(X) = 41,21,41 (b) 87
(a) Two tosses give HH, HT, TH, TT, each with probability 41.
Let X be the number of tails. P(X=0)=41, P(X=1)=42=21, P(X=2)=41.
