EXERCISE - 4.1
1. In a each of the following experiments write the
sample space S, number of sample points n (S), events P, Q, R using set and n
(P), n (Q) and n (R). Find the events among the events defined above which are
: complementary events, mutually exclusive events and exhaustive events.
(i) Three coins are tossed simultaneously :
P is the event of getting at least two heads.
Q is the event of getting no head.
R
is the event of getting head on second coin. [Ans + VIDEO.]
(ii) A die is thrown :
P is the event of getting an odd number.
Q is the event of getting an even number.
R is the event of getting a prime number. [Ans+VIDEO.]
(iii) Two dice are thrown :
P is the event that the sum of the scores on the
uppermost faces is a multiple of 6.
Q is the event that the sum of the scores on the
uppermost faces is at least 10.
R is the event that same score on both dice. [Ans + VIDEO.]
(iv) There are 3 red, 3 white and 3 green balls in a bag.
One ball is drawn at random from a bag :
P is the event that ball is red.
Q is the event that ball is not green.
R is the event that ball is red or white. [Ans + VIDEO.]
(v) Form two digit numbers using the digits 0, 1, 2, 3,
4, 5 without repeating the digits.
P is the event that the number so formed is even.
Q is the event that the number so formed is divisible by
3.
R is the event that the number so formed is greater than
50. [Ans + VIDEO.]
(vi) A coin is tossed and a die is thrown simultaneously
:
P is the event of getting head and a odd number.
Q is the event of getting either H or T and an even
number.
R is the event of getting a number on die greater than 7
and a tail. [Ans+VIDEO.]
(vii) There are 3 men and 2 women. A ‘Gramswachaatta
Abhiyan’ committee of two is to be formed.
P is the event that the committee should contain at least
one woman.
Q is the event that the committee should contain one man
and one woman.
R is the event that there is not woman in the committee. [Ans. VIDEO]
