उत्तर

Two cards are drawn from a pack of 52 cards with replacement.
n(S) = 52 × 52
Let A be the event that two cards drawn are face cards.
First card from 12 face cards is drawn with replacement in 12C1 = 12 ways
and second face card is drawn from 12 face card in 12C1 = 12 ways after replacement.
∴ n(A) = 12 × 12
∴ P (that both the cards drawn are face cards)

= P(A) = `("n"("A"))/("n"("S")`

= `(12xx12)/(52xx52)`

= `9/169`

Read the following passage and answer the questions given below:

In an Office three employees Jayant, Sonia and Oliver process incoming copies of a certain form. Jayant processes 50% of the forms, Sonia processes 20% and Oliver the remaining 30% of the forms. Jayant has an error rate of 0.06, Sonia has an error rate of 0.04 and Oliver has an error rate of 0.03.

Based on the above information, answer the following questions.

  1. Find the probability that Sonia processed the form and committed an error.
  2. Find the total probability of committing an error in processing the form.
  3. The manager of the Company wants to do a quality check. During inspection, he selects a form at random from the days output of processed form. If the form selected at random has an error, find the probability that the form is not processed by Jayant.
