37. The month of September is celebrated as the Rashtriya Poshan Maah

across the country. Following a healthy and well-balanced diet is crucial
in order to supply the body with the proper nutrients it needs. A balanced
diet also keeps us mentally fit and promotes improved level of energy.

Figure-1 Figure-2

A dietician wishes to minimize the cost of a diet involving two types of

foods, food X (x kg) and food Y (y kg) which are available at the rate of
< 16/kg and < 20/kg respectively. The feasible region satisfying the
constraints is shown in Figure-2.

On the basis of the above information, answer the following questions :

(i) Identify and write all the constraints which determine the given
feasible region in Figure-2. 2

(ii) If the objective is to minimize cost Z = 16x + 20y, find the values of
x and y at which cost is minimum. Also, find minimum cost
assuming that minimum cost is possible for the given unbounded
region. 2

38. Airplanes are by far the safest mode of transportation when the number
of transported passengers are measured against personal injuries and
fatality totals.

Previous records state that the probability of an airplane crash is

0·00001%. Further, there are 95% chances that there will be survivors
after a plane crash. Assume that in case of no crash, all travellers
survive.

Let E1 be the event that there is a plane crash and E2 be the event that
there is no crash. Let A be the event that passengers survive after the
journey.

On the basis of the above information, answer the following questions :

(i) Find the probability that the airplane will not crash. 1

(ii) Find P(A | E1) + P(A | E2). 1
