Q24 of 26 Page 1

A Bag I contains 5 red and 4 white balls and a Bag II contains 3 red and 3 white balls. Two balls are transferred from the Bag I to the Bag II and then one ball is drawn from the Bag II. If the ball drawn from the Bag II is red, then find the probability that one red ball and one white ball are transferred from the Bag I to the Bag II.

OR


Find the mean, the variance and the standard deviation of the number of doublets in three throws of a pair of dice.

Given Data:


• Bag I contains 5 red and 4 white balls


• Bag II contains 3 red and 3 white balls


Calculation:


Two balls are transferred from the Bag I to the Bag II


Three possibilities:


• Ball transferred is white, E1




• Ball transferred is red, E2




• One ball is red and other is white, E3




• The ball drawn from the Bag II is red, A


Since this happens after one of the events E1, E2, E3 already happened.


Now bag II has 6 balls,





Probability that one red ball and one white ball are transferred from the Bag I to the Bag II is given by Baye’s Theorem





OR


Given data:


Two dice thrown thrice


Calculation:


Total outcomes are 6x6 =36


Favorable outcomes are (1, 1), (2, 2), (3, 3), (4, 4), (5, 5), (6, 6),




There can be these situations


• No doublets


• Exactly 1 time doublets appear


• Exactly 2 times doublets appear


• 3 time doublets appear


Let X be random variable representing these situations


Now X = 0, 1, 2, 3
