उत्तर
If A and B are independent events such that P(A) = p, P(B) = 2p and P(Exactly one of A, B) =`5/9`, then p = `1/3, 5/12`.
Explanation:
p = `1/3, 5/12` ....`[(1 - "p")(2"p") + "p"(1 - 2"p") = 3"p" - 4"p"^2 = 5/9]`

Bag A contains 3 red and 2 white balls and bag B contains 2 red and 5 white balls. A bag is selected at random, a ball is drawn and put into the other bag, and then a ball is drawn from that bag. Find the probability that both the balls drawn are of same color
A bag contains 3 red and 5 white balls. Two balls are drawn at random one after the other without replacement. Find the probability that both the balls are white.
Solution: Let,
A : First ball drawn is white
B : second ball drawn in white.
P(A) = `square/square`
After drawing the first ball, without replacing it into the bag a second ball is drawn from the remaining `square` balls.
∴ P(B/A) = `square/square`
∴ P(Both balls are white) = P(A ∩ B)
`= "P"(square) * "P"(square)`
`= square * square`
= `square`
