Exercise 13.3 - Chapter 13 Probability class 12 ncert solutions Maths - SaraNextGen [2024]


Question 1:

An urn contains 5 red and 5 black balls. A ball is drawn at random, its colour is noted and is returned to the urn. Moreover, 2 additional balls of the colour drawn are put in the urn and then a ball is drawn at random. What is the probability that the second ball is red?

Answer:

The urn contains 5 red and 5 black balls.

Let a red ball be drawn in the first attempt.

If two red balls are added to the urn, then the urn contains 7 red and 5 black balls.

Question 3:

Of the students in a college, it is known that 60% reside in hostel and 40% are day scholars (not residing in hostel). Previous year results report that 30% of all students who reside in hostel attain A grade and 20% of day scholars attain A grade in their annual examination. At the end of the year, one student is chosen at random from the college and he has an A grade, what is the probability that the student is hostler?

Answer:

Let E1 and E2 be the events that the student is a hostler and a day scholar respectively and A be the event that the chosen student gets grade A.

Let https://img-nm.mnimgs.com/img/study_content/curr/1/12/15/242/7708/NCERT_17-11-08_Gopal_12_Maths_Ex-13.1_17_MNK_SS_html_m2111158f.gifbe the probability that he knows the Answer and https://img-nm.mnimgs.com/img/study_content/curr/1/12/15/242/7708/NCERT_17-11-08_Gopal_12_Maths_Ex-13.1_17_MNK_SS_html_m3c88992d.gifbe the probability that he guesses. Assuming that a student who guesses at the Answer will be correct with probabilityhttps://img-nm.mnimgs.com/img/study_content/curr/1/12/15/242/7708/NCERT_17-11-08_Gopal_12_Maths_Ex-13.1_17_MNK_SS_html_m3c88992d.gif What is the probability that the student knows the Answer given that he Answered it correctly?

Answer:

Let E1 and E2 be the respective events that the student knows the Answer and he guesses the Answer.

Let A be the event that the Answer is correct.

https://img-nm.mnimgs.com/img/study_content/curr/1/12/15/242/7708/NCERT_17-11-08_Gopal_12_Maths_Ex-13.1_17_MNK_SS_html_m10dd1ca.gif

The probability that the student Answered correctly, given that he knows the Answer, is 1.

∴ P (A|E1) = 1

Probability that the student Answered correctly, given that he guessed, is https://img-nm.mnimgs.com/img/study_content/curr/1/12/15/242/7708/NCERT_17-11-08_Gopal_12_Maths_Ex-13.1_17_MNK_SS_html_m3c88992d.gif.

Question 5:

A laboratory blood test is 99% effective in detecting a certain disease when it is in fact, present. However, the test also yields a false positive result for 0.5% of the healthy person tested (that is, if a healthy person is tested, then, with probability 0.005, the test will imply he has the disease). If 0.1 percent of the population actually has the disease, what is the probability that a person has the disease given that his test result is positive?

Answer:

Let E1 and E2 be the respective events that a person has a disease and a person has no disease.

Since E1 and E2 are events complimentary to each other,

∴ P (E1) + P (E2) = 1

⇒ P (E2) = 1 − P (E1) = 1 − 0.001 = 0.999

Let A be the event that the blood test result is positive.

Question 6:

There are three coins. One is two headed coin (having head on both faces), another is a biased coin that comes up heads 75% of the time and third is an unbiased coin. One of the three coins is chosen at random and tossed, it shows heads, what is the probability that it was the two headed coin?

Answer:

Let E1, E2, and E3 be the respective events of choosing a two headed coin, a biased coin, and an unbiased coin.

https://img-nm.mnimgs.com/img/study_content/curr/1/12/15/242/7711/NCERT_17-11-08_Gopal_12_Maths_Ex-13.1_17_MNK_SS_html_m15f5f51b.gif

Let A be the event that the coin shows heads.

A two-headed coin will always show heads.

https://img-nm.mnimgs.com/img/study_content/curr/1/12/15/242/7711/NCERT_17-11-08_Gopal_12_Maths_Ex-13.1_17_MNK_SS_html_m3c0a7a30.gif

Question 7:

An insurance company insured 2000 scooter drivers, 4000 car drivers and 6000 truck drivers. The probability of accidents are 0.01, 0.03 and 0.15 respectively. One of the insured persons meets with an accident. What is the probability that he is a scooter driver?

Answer:

Let E1, E2, and E3 be the respective events that the driver is a scooter driver, a car driver, and a truck driver.

Let A be the event that the person meets with an accident.

There are 2000 scooter drivers, 4000 car drivers, and 6000 truck drivers.

Total number of drivers = 2000 + 4000 + 6000 = 12000

P (E1) = P (driver is a scooter driver) https://img-nm.mnimgs.com/img/study_content/curr/1/12/15/242/7713/NCERT_17-11-08_Gopal_12_Maths_Ex-13.1_17_MNK_SS_html_1333e9dc.gif

Question 8:

A factory has two machines A and B. Past record shows that machine A produced 60% of the items of output and machine B produced 40% of the items. Further, 2% of the items produced by machine A and 1% produced by machine B were defective. All the items are put into one stockpile and then one item is chosen at random from this and is found to be defective. What is the probability that was produced by machine B?

Answer:

Let E1 and E2 be the respective events of items produced by machines A and B. Let X be the event that the produced item was found to be defective.

Question 9:

Two groups are competing for the position on the board of directors of a corporation. The probabilities that the first and the second groups will win are 0.6 and 0.4 respectively. Further, if the first group wins, the probability of introducing a new product is 0.7 and the corresponding probability is 0.3 if the second group wins. Find the probability that the new product introduced was by the second group.

Answer:

Let E1 and E2 be the respective events that the first group and the second group win the competition. Let A be the event of introducing a new product.

P (E1) = Probability that the first group wins the competition = 0.6

P (E2) = Probability that the second group wins the competition = 0.4

P (A|E1) = Probability of introducing a new product if the first group wins = 0.7

P (A|E2) = Probability of introducing a new product if the second group wins = 0.3

The probability that the new product is introduced by the second group is given by

P (E2|A).

Question 10:

Suppose a girl throws a die. If she gets a 5 or 6, she tosses a coin three times and notes the number of heads. If she gets 1, 2, 3 or 4, she tosses a coin once and notes whether a head or tail is obtained. If she obtained exactly one head, what is the probability that she threw 1, 2, 3 or 4 with the die?

Answer:

Let E1 and Ebe the respective events of choosing a diamond card and a card which is not diamond.

Let A denote the lost card.

Out of 52 cards, 13 cards are diamond and 39 cards are not diamond.

The probability that the lost card is diamond is given by P (E1|A).

By using Bayes’ theorem, we obtain

Answer:

Let E1 and E2 be the events such that

E1: A speaks truth

E2: A speaks false

Let X be the event that a head appears.

P(E1)=45Therefore,

P(E2)=1-P(E1)=1-45=15If a coin is tossed, then it may result in either head (H) or tail (T).

The probability of getting a head is https://img-nm.mnimgs.com/img/study_content/curr/1/12/15/242/7726/NCERT_17-11-08_Gopal_12_Maths_Ex-13.1_17_MNK_SS_html_m5a4d85ce.gifwhether A speaks truth or not.

The probability that there is actually a head is given by P (E1|X).

Therefore, the correct Answer is A.

Question 14:

If A and B are two events such that A ⊂ B and P (B) ≠ 0, then which of the following is correct?

A. https://img-nm.mnimgs.com/img/study_content/curr/1/12/15/242/7728/NCERT_17-11-08_Gopal_12_Maths_Ex-13.1_17_MNK_SS_html_m713bca50.gif

B. https://img-nm.mnimgs.com/img/study_content/curr/1/12/15/242/7728/NCERT_17-11-08_Gopal_12_Maths_Ex-13.1_17_MNK_SS_html_m29ee6c50.gif

C. https://img-nm.mnimgs.com/img/study_content/curr/1/12/15/242/7728/NCERT_17-11-08_Gopal_12_Maths_Ex-13.1_17_MNK_SS_html_m71916070.gif

D. None of these

Answer:

If A ⊂ B, then A ∩ B = A

⇒ P (A ∩ B) = P (A)

Also, P (A) < P (B)

Consider https://img-nm.mnimgs.com/img/study_content/curr/1/12/15/242/7728/NCERT_17-11-08_Gopal_12_Maths_Ex-13.1_17_MNK_SS_html_7ad386a5.gif … (1)

Consider https://img-nm.mnimgs.com/img/study_content/curr/1/12/15/242/7728/NCERT_17-11-08_Gopal_12_Maths_Ex-13.1_17_MNK_SS_html_41b8a03c.gif … (2)

It is known that, P (B) ≤ 1

https://img-nm.mnimgs.com/img/study_content/curr/1/12/15/242/7728/NCERT_17-11-08_Gopal_12_Maths_Ex-13.1_17_MNK_SS_html_m190dffed.gif

Thus, from (3), it can be concluded that the relation given in alternative C is correct.
