Question 7.
All the kings, Queens and jacks are taken out from a (RBSESolutions.com) deck of 52 playing cards, then one card is drawn from this well shuffled deck. Find the probability that the card drawn is
(i) A black coloured face card
(ii) A red card. (CBSE 2012)
Solution :
Total number of playing cards in a deck = 52.
The number of face cards i.e., kings, queens, jacks = 12
Taking out all face cards the number of remaining cards = 52 – 12 = 40.
∴ Total number of all possible outcomes = 40
(i) Number of face cards in the remaining playing cards.
Let the event that the black face card drawn be A= 0.
∴ The probability that the card drawn is a black face card P(A) = \(\frac { 0 }{ 40 }\) = 0
This is an impossible event.

(ii) Let occurring the event that the card drawn be (B).
Red cards in the remaining cards = 20.
∴ The number of favourable outcomes of event (B) = 20.
∴ P(B) = \(\frac { 20 }{ 40 }\) = \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 }\)
Hence (i) P(A) = 0 (ii) P(B) = \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 }\)

Question 8.
A box contains 25 notes, ₹ 1 is marked on 19 (RBSESolutions.com) notes of them and ₹ 5 on remaining notes. Another box B contains 50 notes in it ₹ 1 is marked on 45 notes of them and ₹ 13 is marked on the remaining notes. All the noted of two given boxes are collected and put them into another box and mixed them properly.A note is at random drawn from this box. What is the probability that the note drawn has some thing else beside ₹ 1. (NCERT Exemplar Problem)
Solution :
Total number of notes in the boxes A and B = 25 + 50 = 75.
∴ Total number of all possible outcomes = 75
The number of notes on which ₹ 1 is marked = 19 + 45 = 64
Number of notes on which ₹ 1 is not marked = 75 – 64 = 11
Let the event that the note contains some thing else but ₹ 1 be (A).
∴ The number of favourable outcomes of event (A) = 11.
⇒ P(A) = \(\frac { 11 }{ 75 }\)
Hence P(A) = \(\frac { 11 }{ 75 }\)

Question 9.

∴ Total number of all possible outcomes = 8.
(i) The entry fee in the game is ₹ 5, if three tails (RBSESolutions.com) are obtained, Shweta will loss her entry fee.
Let the event of getting three heads be (A).
The favourable outcomes of event A = (TTT)
∴ The number of favourable events of (A) = 1.
P(A) = \(\frac { 1 }{ 8 }\)

(ii) If Shweta gets three heads, she will get double of entry fee.
Let the event of occurring 3 heads be (B).
∴ The favourable outcomes of event B = (HHH)
The number of favourable outcomes of (B) = 1
⇒ P(B) = \(\frac { 1 }{ 8 }\)

(iii) If she gets one or two heads, she will (RBSESolutions.com) get back her enty fee.
Let the event ofoccuring one or two heads be (C).
The favourable outcomes of event C = HHT, HTH, THH, THT, HTT, TTH.
∴ The number of favourable outcomes of (C) = 6
⇒ P(C) = \(\frac { 6 }{ 8 }\) = \(\frac { 3 }{ 4 }\)
Hence (i) P(A) = \(\frac { 1 }{ 8 }\)
(ii) P(B) = \(\frac { 1 }{ 8 }\)

When a dice is thrown twice, the all (RBSESolutions.com) possible outcomes are
(1, 1), (1, 2), (1, 3), (1, 4), (1, 5), (1, 6)
(2, 1), (2, 2), (2, 3), (2 ,4), (2, 5), (2, 6)
(3, 1), (3, 2,), (3, 3), (3, 4), (3, 5), (3 ,6)
(4, 1), (4, 2), (4, 3), (4, 4), (4, 5), (4, 6)
(5, 1), (5, 2), (5, 3), (5, 4), (5, 5), (5, 6)
(6, 1), (6, 2), (6, 3), (6, 4), (6, 5), (6, 6)
Total number of all possible outcomes = 36
Number of the outcomes which contain digit 5 = 11.
The number which does not contain the digit 5 = 36 – 11 = 25
(i) Number of favourable outcomes not occurring 5 = 25
Total number of all possible outcomes = 36
The required probability

= \(\frac { 25 }{ 36 }\)

(ii) The number of favourable outcomes of (RBSESolutions.com) occurring a digit 5 at least = 11
Total number of all possible outcomes = 36
∴ The probability that the digit 5 occurs at least one time = \(\frac { 11 }{ 36 }\)
Hence (i) The probability not occurring 5 = \(\frac { 25 }{ 36 }\)
(ii) Probability of occurring 5 at least one time = \(\frac { 11 }{ 36 }\)
