PART – A

1. In a single throw of three dice, determine the probability of getting a total of 5.

2. There are 58 students in a class, 29 are boys and rest are girls .A student selected at
random for class monitor, what is probability that the monitor selected is (1) boy (2) girl

3. Ten coins are tossed simultaneously,Find the probability of getting atleast seven heads.

Part B

4. The contents of the urn 1,2,3 are as follows:-

1 white, 2 black, 3 red ball,

2 white , 1 black, 1 red ball,

4 white, 5 black , 3 red balls .

One urn is chosen at random and two balls are drawn. They happen to be red and
white. What is the probability that they come from urns 1 ,2 or 3.

5. For the two events A and B, let P(A)=0.4, P(B)=p and P(AUB)=0.6

(i) Find p so that A and B are independent events.

(ii) For what values of p are A and B are mutually exclusive.

6.One bag contains 4 white balls and 2 black balls , another contains 3
white balls and 5 black balls. If one ball is drawn from each bag , find the
probability that (a) both are white (b) both are black ,(c) one is white and
one is black.
8. A problem in mathematics is given to the three students A , B and C
whose chances of solving it are respectively. What is the
probability that problem will be solved.

10.One bag contains 4 white balls and 2 black balls , another contains 3
white balls and 5 black balls. If one ball is drawn from each bag , find the
probability that (a) both are white (b) both are black ,(c) one is white and
one is black.
