AIEEE Exam

A box contains 3 white and 2 red balls. If we
draw one ball and without replacing the first ball,
the probability of drawing red ball in the second
draw is -
(A) 8/25 (B) 2/5
(C) 3/5 (D) 21/25

Read Solution (Total 1)

B. here there are two cases :
case 1: if frst ball chosen is white, then second has to be red -no, of cases are = 3C1*2C1
case 2: frst is red then secnd has to be red=2C1*1C1
total cases would be- 5C1*4C1=20
hence probability=(case1+case2)/total no. of cases
hence answer is=(3*2+2*1)/20 that is=2/5 (B)

Jack would like to determine the mileage of his car. When he filled his gas tank the first time, the odometer read 23,695 miles. When he filled the tank up a second time, the odometer read 24,095. he pumped 12 gallons of gas in to his tank. How many miles per gallon does his car get?
