Periodic Test - IV
Subject – Applied Mathematics (241)
Class - XI
Time: 1 Hour Max. Marks: 25
General Instructions:
1. All the questions are compulsory.
2. Marks have been written in front of each question.
𝟏 [1]
1. If P(A) = , P(B) = 0, then P(A|B) is:
𝟐

a) 0 b) not defined 𝟏 d) 1
c) 𝟐
2. If A and B are events such that P(A|B) = P(B|A), then: [1]
a) A ⊂ B but A ≠ B b) A = B c) A ∩ B =∅ d) P(A) = P(B)
𝟒 [1]
3. Probability that A speaks truth is 𝟓 . A coin is tossed. A reported that a head

appears. The probability that actually there was head is:


𝟒 𝟐 𝟏 𝟏
a) 𝟓 b) 𝟓 c) 𝟓 d) 𝟐

4. The probability of obtaining an even prime number on each die, when a pair of [1]
dice is rolled is:
a) 0 𝟏 𝟏 𝟏
b) 𝟑𝟔 c) 𝟑 d) 𝟏𝟐

5. If A and B are two events such that A ⊂ B and P(B) ≠ 0, then which of the following [1]
is correct?
a) P(A|B) =P(A) b) P(A|B) ≥ P(A) c) P(A| B) = P(B)/P(A) d) P(A|B) < P(A)

6. Two events A and B will be independent, if: [1]


a) A and B are mutually exclusive b) P(A) + P(B) = 1
c) P(𝑨′ ∩ 𝑩′ ) = [ 1 – P(A)] [ 1 – P(B)] d) P(A) = P(B)

7. In a meeting, 70% of the members favour and 30% oppose a certain proposal. A [2]
member is selected at random and we take X = 0 if he opposed, and X = 1 if he is in
favour. Find E(X) and Var(X).
8. An urn contains 5 red and 5 black balls. A ball is drawn at random, its colour is [3]
noted and is returned to the urn. Moreover, 2 additional balls of the colour drawn
are put in the urn and then a ball is drawn at random. What is the probability that
the second ball is red?

9. A card from a pack of 52 cards is lost. From the remaining cards of the pack, two [3]
cards are drawn and are found to be both diamonds. Find the probability of the
lost card being a diamond.
10. Given three identical boxes I, II and III each containing two coins. In box I both [3]
coins are gold coins, in box II, both are silver coins and, in the box III, there is one
gold and one silver coin. A person chooses a box at random and takes out a coin.
If the coin is of gold, what is the probability that the other coin in the box is also of
gold?
11. A and B throw a die alternatively till one of them gets a 6 and wins the game. Find [3]
their respective probabilities of winning, if A starts first.
12. A laboratory blood test is 99% effective in detecting a certain disease when it is in [5]
fact, present. However, the test also yields a false positive result for 0.5% of the
healthy person tested (i. e if a healthy person is tested, then, with probability
0.005, the test will imply he has the disease). If 0.1 percent of the population
actually has the disease, what is the probability that a person has the disease
given that his test result is positive?
