Class XI Mathematics Assignment
Probability
1) An ordinary deck of cards contains 52 cards divided into four suits. The
red suits are diamonds and hearts and black suits are clubs and
spades. The cards J, Q, and K are called face cards. Suppose we pick
one card from the deck at random.
a) What is the sample space of the experiment?
b) What is the event that the chosen card is a black face card?
2) Suppose that each child born is equally likely to be a boy or a girl.
Consider a family with exactly three children.
a) List the eight elements in the sample space whose outcomes are all
possible genders of the three children.
b) Write each of the following events as a set and find its probability:
i) The event that exactly one child is a girl.
ii) The event that at least two children are girls
iii) The event that no child is a girl
3) a) How many two-digit positive integers are multiples of 3?
b) What is the probability that a randomly chosen two-digit positive
integer is a multiple of 3?
4) A typical PIN (personal identification number) is a sequence of any four
symbols chosen from the 26 letters in the alphabet and the ten digits.
If all PINs are equally likely, what is the probability that a randomly
chosen PIN contains a repeated symbol?
5) An experiment has four possible outcomes A, B, C and D, that are
mutually exclusive. Explain why the following assignments of
probabilities are not permissible:

6) Probability that a truck stopped at a roadblock will have faulty brakes


or badly worn tires are 0.23 and 0.24, respectively. Also, the
probability is 0.38 that a truck stopped at the roadblock will have faulty
brakes and/or badly working tires. What is the probability that a truck

stopped at this roadblock will have faulty breaks as well as badly worn
tires?
7) If a person visits his dentist, suppose the probability that he will have
his teeth cleaned is 0.48, the probability that he will have a cavity filled
is 0.25, the probability that he will have a tooth extracted is 0.20, the
probability that he will have a teeth cleaned and a cavity filled is 0.09,
the probability that he will have his teeth cleaned and a tooth extracted
is 0.12, the probability that he will have a cavity filled and a tooth
extracted is 0.07, and the probability that he will have his teeth
cleaned, a cavity filled, and a tooth extracted is 0.03. What is the
probability that a person visiting his dentist
8) An urn contains twenty white slips of paper numbered from 1 through
20, ten red slips of paper numbered from 1 through 10, forty yellow
slips of paper numbered from 1 through 40, and ten blue slips of paper
numbered from 1 through 10. If these 80 slips of paper are thoroughly
shuffled so that each slip has the same probability of being drawn. Find
the probabilities of drawing a slip of paper that is
a) Blue or white b) Numbered 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5
c) Red or yellow and numbered 1, 2, 3 or 4
d) Numbered 5, 15, 25, or 35;
e) White and numbered higher than 12 or yellow and numbered higher
than 26
9) Three digit numbers are formed using the digits 0, 2, 4, 6, 8. A number
is chosen at random out of these numbers. What is the probability that
this number has the same digits?
10) Three squares of chess board are selected at random. Find the
probability of getting 2 squares of one colour and other of a different
colour
11) Three of the six vertices of a regular hexagon are chosen at random.
What is the probability that the triangle with these vertices is
equilateral?
12) If A, B, C are three mutually exclusive and exhaustive events of an
experiment such that 3P(A) = 2P(B) = P(C), then find P(A)
