(A) P(B | A) < P(B) (B) P(A Ç B) < P(A) . P(B)
(C) P(B | A) > P(B) (D) P(B | A) = P(B)

Section B
//X
• Write the answer of the following questions. [Each carries 3 Marks] [21]
1. A bag contains 4 red and 4 black balls, another bag contains 2 red and 6 black balls. One of the
two bags is selected at random and a ball is drawn from the bag which is found to be red. Find the
probability that the ball is drawn from the first bag.
2. In answering a question in the multiple choice test, a student either knows the answer or guesses.
3 1
Let be the probability that he knows the answer and be the probability that he guesses.
4 4
1
Assuming that a student who guesses the answer will be correct with probability . What is the
4
probability that the student knows the answer given that he answered it correctly ?
3. A factory has two machines A and B. Past record shows that machine A produced 60% of the items
of output and machine B produced 40% of the items. Further, 2% of the items produced by machine
A and 1% produced by machine B were defective. All the items are put into one stockpile and then
one item is chosen at random from this and is found to be defective. What is the probability that
it was produced by machine B ?
4. Assume that the chances of a patient having a heart attack is 40%. It is also assumed that a meditation
and yoga course reduce the risk of heart attack by 30% and prescription of certain drug reduces its
chances by 25%. At a time a patient can choose any one of the two options with equal probabilities.
It is given that after going through one of the two options the patient selected at random suffers a heart
attack. Find the probability that the patient followed a course of meditation and yoga ?
5. If A and B are two independent events, then the probability of occurrence of at least one of
A and B is given by 1– P(A') P(B').

6. Suppose that the reliability of a HIV test is specified as follows: Of people having HIV, 90% of the test
detect the disease but 10% go undetected. Of people free of HIV, 99% of the test are judged HIV–ive
but 1% are diagnosed as showing HIV+ive. From a large population of which only 0.1% have HIV, one
person is selected at random, given the HIV test, and the pathologist reports him/her as HIV+ive.
What is the probability that the person actually has HIV ?
7. A doctor is to visit a patient. From the past experience, it is known that the probabilities that he
3 1 1 2
will come by train, bus, scooter or by other means of transport are respectively , , and .
10 5 10 5
1 1 1
The probabilities that he will be late are , and if he comes by train, bus and scooter
4 3 12
respectively, but if he comes by other means of transport, then he will not be late. When he arrives,
he is late. What is the probability that he comes by train ?
