PROBABILITY
1) In a class, having 60% boys, 5% of boys and 10% of girls have an IQ of more than 150.
A student is selected at random and found to have an IQ of more than 150. Find the
probability that the selected student is a boy.
2) A pair of dice is thrown 6 times. Getting a total of 7 on the two dice is considered a
success. Find the Probability of getting (i) at least 5 successes (ii) exactly 5 successes.
3) A pair of dice is thrown 4 times . If getting a doublet is considered a success, find the
probability distribution of number of successes.
4) Two cards are drawn simultaneously from a well packed deck of 52 cards . Find the mean
and standard deviation of the number of the kings
5) Three Bags contain balls as shown in the table below
Bag Number of white Number of black Number of red balls
balls balls
I 1 2 3
II 2 1 1
III 4 3 2
A bag is chosen at random and two balls are drawn from it .They Happen to be white
and red. What is probability that they came from the III bag.
6) On a multiple choice examinations with three possible answers ( out of which only one is
correct) for each of the five questions, what is the probability that a candidate should get
four or more correct answers just by guessing.
7) Suppose that 5% of men and 0.25% of women have grey hair , A Grey Haired person is
selected at random . What is the probability of this person being a male. Assume that
there are equal number of males and Females.
