Correct Answer: B. Courier service

Correct Answer: D. \(\frac{15}{16}\)

Explanation

P(at least one head) = 1 - P(4 tails)

Let \(p = \frac{1}{2}\) = probability of head and \(q = \frac{1}{2}\) = probability of tail.

\((p + q)^{4} = p^{4} + 4p^{3}q + 6p^{2}q^{2} + 4pq^{3} + q^{4}\)

P(4 tails) = \(q^{4} = (\frac{1}{2})^{4} = \frac{1}{16}\)

P(at least one head) = \(1 - \frac{1}{16} = \frac{15}{16}\)

Correct Answer: D. Graphite rods

Explanation

(a) Let S = sample space = integers from 5 to 25 inclusive.

F = multiple of 5 ; T = multiple of 3.

S = {5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25}

F = {5, 10, 15, 20, 25}; T = {6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24}

P(F or T) = \(\frac{5}{21} + \frac{7}{21} = \frac{12}{21} = \frac{4}{7}\)

(b) Let B = blue balls and R = red balls

n(B) = 4 ; n(R) = 6.

(i) P(both are red) = \(\frac{6}{10} \times \frac{6}{10} = \frac{36}{100}\)

= \(\frac{9}{25}\)

(ii) P(both are same colour) = P(both are red) or P(both are blue)

= \(\frac{9}{25} + (\frac{2}{5} \times \frac{2}{5})\)

= \(\frac{9}{25} + \frac{4}{25}\)

= \(\frac{13}{25}\)
