What is the probability of getting a sum 9 from two throws of a dice?
  1. ক) 1/2
  2. খ) 3/5
  3. গ) 1/9
  4. ঘ) 1/3

উত্তর
সঠিক উত্তর:
গ) 1/9
ব্যাখ্যা

In two throws of a dice, n(S) = (6 x 6) = 36
Let E = event of getting a sum
         = {(3, 6), (4, 5), (5, 4), (6, 3)}
∴P(E) = n(E)/n(S)
           =4/36
           =1/9

In a box, there are 8 red, 7 blue and 6 green balls. One ball is picked up randomly. What is the probability that it is neither red nor green?
  1. ক) 1/2
  2. খ) 1/3
  3. গ) 2/3
  4. ঘ) 3/5
সঠিক উত্তর:

উত্তর
সঠিক উত্তর:
খ) 1/3
ব্যাখ্যা
Total number of balls
= (8 + 7 + 6)
= 21
Let E = event that the ball drawn is neither red nor green
= event that the ball drawn is blue
∴n(E)=7
∴P(E) = n(E)/n(S)
          = 7/21
          = 1/3

Three unbiased coins are tossed. What is the probability of getting at most two heads?
  1. ক) 7/8
  2. খ) 5/8
  3. গ) 1/3
  4. ঘ) 4/5
সঠিক উত্তর:
ক) 7/8
উত্তর
সঠিক উত্তর:
ক) 7/8
ব্যাখ্যা
Getting at most Two heads means 0 to 2 but not more than 2
Here S = {TTT, TTH, THT, HTT, THH, HTH, HHT, HHH}
Let E = event of getting at most two heads
Then E = {TTT, TTH, THT, HTT, THH, HTH, HHT}
∴P(E) = n(E)/n(S) = 7/8

সঠিক উত্তর:
ঘ) 319/420
ব্যাখ্যা
Let the probability of winning the race is denoted by P(person)
P(P)=1/4,P(Q)=1/5,P(R)=1/6,P(S)=1/7
All the events are mutually exclusive (since if one of them wins then other would lose as pointed out by rahul) hence,
Required probability:
= P(P) + P(Q) + P(R) + P(S)
=1/4 + 1/5 + 1/6 + 1/7 = 319/420

উত্তর
সঠিক উত্তর:
গ) 5/26
ব্যাখ্যা
If 2 marbles are picked at random from 6 red marbles,
then the probability
= 6C2
= 15

If 2 marbles are picked at random from (6 + 5 + 2) or 13 marbles,
then the probability
= 13C2
= 78

P(Both are red)
= 15/78
= 5/26

সঠিক উত্তর:

উত্তর
সঠিক উত্তর:
ঘ) 15
ব্যাখ্যা
Let n be the number of persons in the party
Number of hands shake = 105
Total number of hands shake is given by nC2
Now,
According to the question,
nC2 = 105
or, n!/(2!×(n−2)!) = 105
or, n × (n−1)/2 = 105
or, n2 − n = 210
or, n2 − n − 210 = 0
or, n = 15,−14

But, we cannot take negative value of n
So, n = 15

There are 10 points in a plane out of which 4 are collinear. Find the number of triangles formed by the points as vertices.
  1. ক) 116
  2. খ) 120
  3. গ) 124
  4. ঘ) 132
সঠিক উত্তর:
ক) 116
উত্তর
সঠিক উত্তর:
ক) 116
ব্যাখ্যা
The number of triangle can be formed by 10 points = 10C3
Similarly, the number of triangle can be formed by 4 points when no one is collinear = 4C3
In the question, given 4 points are collinear, Thus, required number of triangle can be formed,
= 10C3 - 4C3
= 120 - 4
= 116

To committee can be formed in the following ways,
(1 lady + 4 gents) or (2 ladies + 3 gents) or (3 ladies + 2 gents) or (4 ladies + 1 gents) or (5 ladies + 0 gents).
Total number of possible arrangements,
= (4C1 × 6C4) + (4C2 × 6C3) + (4C3 × 6C2) + (4C4 × 6C1)
= 60 + 120 + 60 + 6
= 246



[ From 6 men and 4 ladies, a committee of 5 is to be formed. In how many ways can this be done, if there is no restriction about its formation?
Solution:
From 6 men and 4 ladies, a committee of 5 is to be formed.
Total number of possible arrangements, if there is no restriction about its formation
= (6 + 4)C5
= 10C5
= 252 ]

If 6Pr = 360 and If 6Cr = 15, find r?
  1. ক) 1
  2. খ) 2
  3. গ) 3
  4. ঘ) 4
সঠিক উত্তর:
ঘ) 4
উত্তর
সঠিক উত্তর:
ঘ) 4
ব্যাখ্যা
nPr = nCr × r!
6Pr = 15 × r!
360 = 15 × r!
r! = 360/15
 = 24
r! = 4 × 3 × 2 × 1
⇒ r! = 4!
Therefore, r = 4
----------------------------
Alternative way:
6Pr/6Cr = 360/15
or, 6!/(6 - r)! ÷ 6!/{r!(6 - r)!} = 24
or, r! = 4!
∴ r = 4

সঠিক উত্তর:
গ) 126
ব্যাখ্যা
There are 8 students and the maximum capacity of the cars together is 9.
We may divide the 8 students as follows:

Case I:
5 students in the first car and 3 in the second.
Hence, 8 students are divided into groups of 5 and 3
in 8C3 = 56 ways.

Case II:
4 students in the first car and 4 in the second.
So, 8 students are divided into two groups of 4 and 4
in 8C4 = 70 ways.

Therefore, the total number of ways in which 8 students can travel is:
56 + 70 = 126

উত্তর
সঠিক উত্তর:
ক) 18/455
ব্যাখ্যা
Total number of marbles = (6 + 4 + 2 + 3) = 15
Let E be the event of drawing 2 blue and 1 yellow marble.
Then, n(E) = 4C2 × 3C1
   =(4 × 3)/(2 × 1) × 3
   = 18
Also, n(S) = 15C3
    = 15 × 14 × 13/(3 × 2 × 1)
    = 455
∴P(E) = n(E)/n(S) = 18/455

উত্তর
সঠিক উত্তর:
গ) 4/13
ব্যাখ্যা
Here, n(S) = 52
There are 13 cards of diamond (including one king) and there are three more kings.
Let E = event of getting a diamond or a king
Then, n(E) = (13 + 3) = 16
∴P(E) = n(E)/n(S)
          =16/52
          = 4/13

সঠিক উত্তর:
ঘ) 2/5
ব্যাখ্যা
P(E) = 30/100 = 3/10;
P(B) = 20/100 = 1/5
and P(E∩B) = 10/100 =1/10
P (E or B)
= P(E∪B)
= P(E) + P(B) - P(E∪B)
= (3/10+1/5−1/10)
= 4/10
= 2/5

উত্তর
সঠিক উত্তর:
ক) 3! 8! 4! 4!
ব্যাখ্যা
Taking all person of same nationality as one person, then we will have only three people.
These three person can be arranged themselves in 3! Ways.
8 Bangladeshi can be arranged themselves in 8! Way.
4 American can be arranged themselves in 4! Ways.
4 Englishman can be arranged themselves in 4! Ways.
Hence, required number of ways = 3! 8! 4! 4! Ways.
