100 students appeared for two different examinations 60 passed the first,50 the second and 30 both the examinations.Find the probability that a student selected at random failed in both the examination
a)5/6 b)1/5 c)1/7 d)5/7
Read Solution (Total 12)
-
- 60+50-30=80
100-80=20
20/100=1/5.
so B is the answer. - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(27) No(1)
- 100 students
60 pass(1)&50 pass(2)
30 pass (both 1&2)
p(aub)=60+50-30=80
probability of selecting a passed student =80/100
not selecting=(1-80/100)=20/100=1/5

- b ,in first round the probability of failures is 40/100 in second round it is 50/100. the product of these two gives 1/5 as answer
- 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(5) No(1)
- n(1)=60[no.of students passed in first exam]
n(2)=50[no.of students passed in second exam]
n(1∩2)=30[no.of students passed in both exams]
[n(AUB)=n(A)+n(B)-n(A∩B)]
no. of students passed = (60+50)-30
=80
no. of students failed in both exams = 100 - 80
=20
PROBABILITY = 20/100
=1/5 - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(5) No(0)
- first subject 60 pass and 40 fail
second subject 50 pass and 50 fail
bot pass 30
first only pass 60-30=30
second only pass 50-30=20
total pass 30+30+20=80
both fail=100-80=20
so 20/100=1/5 - 7 years agoHelpfull: Yes(5) No(0)
- We are needed to find (A' intersection B')= (1-60/100)(1-50/100)
1/5 ans - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(2) No(0)
- Answ is 1/5
- 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(0)
- 20c1/110c1=1/5
- 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(1)
- 20c1/100c1=1/5
- 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(1)
- total students are 100
30 pased first 20 passed second 30 passed both by venn diagram
30+30+20=80
100-80=20
20/100=1/5
so, ans is 5 - 8 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- 60+50-30=80
100-80=20
20/100=1/5
ans: (b) 1/5 - 5 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- p(aub)=p(a)+a(b)-p(a-b)
p(aub)=0.6+0.5-0.3
p(aub)=0.8
p(aub)'=1-p(aub)
p(aub)'=1-0.8
p(aub)'=0.2 - 3 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
