One ticket is selected at random from 50 tickets numbered 00, 01, 02, …., 49. Then, the probability that the sum of the digits on the selected ticket is 8, given that the product of these digits is zero equals

View answer and explanation

Correct option: A

\frac{1}{{14}}

Option C (

\frac{1}{4}

) is correct because there are two favorable outcomes (HTH, THT) out of a total of eight possible outcomes when tossing a coin three times.

Consider the probability distribution

\begin{array}{cccccc}X: & 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & 5 \\ P(X): & k^2 & 2 k & k & 2 k & 5 k^2\end{array}

The value of

P(X>2)

is A bag contains

\left( {2\;n + 1} \right)

coins. It is known that

n

of these coins have a head on both sides, whereas the remaining

n + 1

coins are fair. A coin is picked up at random from the bag and tossed. If the probability that the toss results in a head is 31/42, then

n

is equal to The probability that a bulb produced by a factory will fuse after 150 days of use is 0.05 . What is the probability that out of 5 such bulbs none will fuse after 150 days of use If

A

and

B

are two independent events such that

P\left( {A \cap B'} \right) = \frac{3}{{25}}

and

P\left( {A' \cap B} \right) = \frac{8}{{25}}

, then

P\left( A \right)

is equal to In a game two players

A

and

B

take turns in throwing a pair of fair dice starting with player

A

and total of scores on the two dice, in each throw is noted. A wins the game if he throws a total of 6 before

B

throws a total of 7 and

B

wins the game if he throws a total of 7 before A throws a total of six. The game stops as soon as either of the player wins. The probability of

A

winning the game is A box contains 5 brown and 4 white socks. A man takes out two socks. The probability that they are of the same colour is
