A card is selected at random from an ordinary pack of 52 playing cards. Consider the
1 following events: A : card is a heart, B : card is a face card, then determine (i) P(A) (ii) CO3 10
P(B), and (iii) 𝑃(𝐴 ∪ 𝐵).
Four boxes A, B, C and D contain 500, 300, 200 and 100 fuses respectively. The
percentages of fuses in the boxes which are defective are 3%, 2%, 1% and 0.5%

respectively. One fuse is selected at random arbitrarily from one of the boxes. It was
found to be a defective fuse. Determine the probability that it has come from the box D.
A random variable X has the following probability distribution:
X=x 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7

P (X = x) 0 k 2k 2k 3k k2 2 k2 7 k2 + k
Determine the value of (i) k, (ii) mean, and (iii) variance and standard deviation.

two will be defective, and (iii) exactly three will be defective, and at most two are
defective.
