A bag contains 3 yellow and 5 brown balls. Another bag contains 4 yellow and 6 brown balls. If one ball is drawn from each bag, what is the probability that, the balls are of different color?

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`

A family has two children. Find the probability that both the children are girls, given that atleast one of them is a girl.

Solve the following:

If P(A ∩ B) = `1/2`, P(B ∩ C) = `1/3`, P(C ∩ A) = `1/6` then find P(A), P(B) and P(C), If A,B,C are independent events.

Solve the following:

A machine produces parts that are either good (90%), slightly defective (2%), or obviously defective (8%). Produced parts get passed through an automatic inspection machine, which is able to detect any part that is obviously defective and discard it. What is the quality of the parts that make it throught the inspection machine and get shipped?
