Introduction:
Experiment:
An operation which can produce some well-defined outcome is
called an experiment.
Random Experiment:
Sol: In 52 cards 13 cards are diamond including one king there are
3 more kings. E event of getting a diamond or a king.
n(E) =13 +3
= 16
P(E) =n(E) /n(S) =16/52
=4/13
17) Two cards are drawn together from apack of 52 cards.What is the
probability that one is a spade and one is a heart ?
Sol: S be the sample space the n (S) =52C2 =52*51/2
=1326
let E =event of getting 2 kings out of 4 kings
n(E) =4C2
=6
P(E) =n(E)/n(S)
=6/1326
=1/221
18) Two cards are drawn together from a pack of 52 cards.What is the
probability that one is a spade and one is a heart?
Sol: Let S be the sample space then
n(S) =52C2
=1326
E = Event of getting 1 spade and 1 heart.
n(E) =number of ways of choosing 1 spade out of 13 and 1 heart out
of 13.
= 13C1*13C1 =169
P(E)= n(E)/n(S)
=169/1326 =13/102.
19) Two cards are drawn from a pack of 52 cards .What is the
probability that either both are Red or both are Kings?
Sol: S be the sample space.
n(S) =The number of ways for drawing 2 cards from 52 cards.
n(S) =52C2
=1326
E1 be the event of getting bothe red cards.
E2 be the event of getting both are kings.
E1nE2 =Event of getting 2 kings of red cards.
We have 26 red balls.From 26 balls we have to choose 2 balls.
n(E1) =26C2
= 26*25/2
=325
We have 4 kings .out of 4 kings,we have to choosed 2 balls.
n(E2) =4C2
=6
n(E1nE2) =2C2 =1
P(E1) = n(E1)/n(S)
=325/1326
P(E2) =n(E2)/n(S)
=6/1326
P(E1nE2) =n(E1nE2)/n(S) =1/1326
P(both red or both kings) = P(E1UE2)
= P(E1) +P(E2)-P(E1nE2)
=325/1326 +6/1326 -1/1326
=330/1326 =55/221
