If α, β and γ are the angles which the vector OP (O being the origin) makes with the positive direction of the coordinate axes, then which of the following are correct?
cos2 α + cos2 β = sin2 γ
sin2 α + sin2 β = cos2 γ
sin2 α + sin2 β + sin2 γ = 2
Select the correct answer using the code given below.
Direction angles: If α, β, and γ are the angles made by the line segment with the coordinate axis then these angles are termed to be the direction angles.
Direction cosines: The cosines of direction angles are the direction cosines of the line. Hence, cos α, cos β and cos γ are called as the direction cosines, It is denoted by l, m and n. ⇔ l = cos α, m = cos β and n = cos γ
The sum of squares of the direction cosines of a line is equal to unity.
l2 + m2 + n2 = 1 or cos2 α + cos2 β + cos2 γ = 1
Direction ratios: Any numbers which are proportional to the direction cosines of a line are called as the direction ratios. It is denoted by ‘a’, ‘b’ and ‘c’.
a ∝ l, b ∝ m and c ∝ n ⇔ a = kl, b = km and c = kn Where k is a constant.

The angle between the lines x + y – 3 = 0 and x – y + 3 = 0 is α and the acute angle between the lines x- 3y + 23 = 0 and 3x – y + 1 = 0 is β. Which one of the following is correct?
Angle between two lines: The angle θ between the lines having slope m1 and m2 is given by tanθ=;1+;m1;m2m2−m1
Calculation:
Let's find the slope,
⇒ Let slope of line x + y – 3 = 0 is m1 and slope of line x – y + 3 = 0 is m2
∴ m1 = -1 and m2 = 1
Given angle between the lines x + y – 3 = 0 and x – y + 3 = 0 is α
Hence tan α = 1+(−1)×1;1−(−1)=∞
∴ α = 90°
Again,
⇒ Let slope of line x- √3y + 2√3 = 0 is m1 and √3x – y + 1 = 0 is m2
∴ m1 = (1/√3) and m2 = √3
Given angle between the lines x- √3y + 2√3 = 0 and √3x – y + 1 = 0 is β
Hence tan β = 1+(3;×;31)3−;31=31
∴ β = 30°
Therefore α > β

Ellipse: The locus of a point which moves such that its distance from a fixed point and a fixed straight line is always less than one (Eccentricity = e < 1) ⇔ a2;x2+b2y2=1 (a > b)
The sum of the focal distance of any point on an ellipse is constant and equal to the length of the major axis of the ellipse. ⇔ PS + PS' = 2a = Major axis
Focus: (± ae, 0)
Eccentricity: e=;1−;a2b2 ⇔ a2e2 = a2 - b2
Distance between Focus = 2ae
Calculation:
Given: PS + PS' = 10
⇒ 2a = 10
∴ a = 5
Distance between Focus = 8
⇒ 2ae = 8
⇒ ae = 4
Squaring both sides, we get
⇒ a2e2 = 16
⇒ (a2 - b2) = 16
⇒ b2 = a2 - 16 = 25 - 16 = 9
∴ b = 3
The area of the path he encloses = Area of ellipse = πab = π × 5 × 3 = 15π

Solution:
Let the given vectors be Aˉ=ai^+;j^+;k^,;Bˉ=;i^+;bj^+k^ and Cˉ=;i^+;j^+ck^.
It is given that the vectors are coplaner therefore the scaler triple product Aˉ⋅[Bˉ×Cˉ]=0.
Angle between the lines given the direction ratios:
The angle between the lines with direction ratios ⟨a1,;b1,;c1⟩ and ⟨a2,;b2,;c2⟩ is given by: \(\cos {\bf{\theta }} = ;\frac{{{{\bf{a}}_1}{{\bf{a}}_2} + ;{{\bf{b}}_1}{{\bf{b}}_2} + {{\bf{c}}_1}{{\bf{c}}2};}}{{\sqrt {{\bf{a}}{1;}^2 + ;{\bf{b}}_1^2 + ;{\bf{c}}1^2} \sqrt {{\bf{a}}{2;}^2 + ;{\bf{b}}_2^2 + ;{\bf{c}}_2^2} }}\)
Solution:
It is given that the angle between the lines whose direction ratios are ⟨2,−1,;2⟩ And ⟨x,;3,;5;⟩ is 4π.
Therefore from the formula for the angle between the lines we get:
cos4π=4+1+4x2+9+252x−3+10
21=;3x2+342x+7
21=9(x2+34)(2x+7)2 ....squaring both sides
Now simplify the above equation to form a quadratic equation as follows:
9x2+;306=;8x2+56x+98
x2−56x+208=0
(x−52)(x−4)=0
x = 52, 4
Therefore, the minimum value is 4.
Question 54
The position of the point (1, 2) relative to the ellipse 2x2 + 7y2 = 20 is
For any curve F(x, y) = k in the xy-plane with k is a real number, then the point (a, b) lies on the curve if F(a, b) = k.
For any curve F(x, y) = k in the xy-plane with k is a real number, then the point (a, b) lies outside the curve if F(a, b) > k.
For any curve F(x, y) = k in the xy-plane with k is a real number, then the point (a, b) lies inside the curve if F(a, b) < k.
Standard equation of an ellipse and its foci:
The standard equation of an ellipse is of the form a2x2+b2y2=1. If a2 > b2 then the ellipse is horizontal and vertical otherwise.
The foci of the ellipse is given by (±c, 0) if the ellipse is horizontal and it is given by (0, ±c) if the ellipse is vertical.
Solution:
Observe that the given equation is of the form F(x, y) = k, where F(x, y) = 2x2 + 7y2 and k = 20.
Therefore, to find the position of the given point (1, 2) with respect to ellipse substitute x = 1 and y = 2 in the equation of the ellipse..
Therefore,
2(1)2+;7(2)2=30
But 30 > 20 therefore we have F(1, 2) > k and therefore the point (1, 2) lies outside the ellipse.
Question 55
The equation of a straight line which cuts off an intercept of 5 units on negative direction of y-axis and makes an angle 120° with positive direction of x-axis is
For an ellipse with x-axis as its major axis with equation a2x2+b2y2=1 where a > b the length of the latus rectum is given by: l=;a2b2
The relation between major axis, minor axis and eccentricity of an ellipse:
For an ellipse with x-axis as its major axis with equation a2x2+b2y2=1 where a > b and eccentricity e the following relation always holds: b2=a2(1−e2)
Solution:
It is given that the length of latus rectum l = 4 and eccentricity e=43.
Let the equation of the ellipse be a2x2+b2y2=1 where a > b.
For the given ellipse we have already discovered that the relation b2=a2(1−e2) holds.
Therefore, the equation of the ellipse is a2x2+a2(1−e2);y2=1.
Given that e=;43 therefore 1−e2=;167.
Also we have the length of latus rectum is l=4
Therefore, 4=;a2b2
Substituting b2=a2(1−e2) in the above equation we get 4=a2a2(1−e2);.
Therefore,
2=167a
a=732
Therefore, a2=491024 and b2=;491024(167)=;764.
Thus, the equation of the ellipse is 102449x2+647y2=1.
Question 58
The equation of the circle which passes through the points (1, 0), (0, -6) and (3, 4) is
The general equation of a circle with centre (-g, -h) is x2 + y2 + 2gx + 2fy + c = 0.
Points on the curve:
For a curve F(x, y) = k if a point (a, b) lies on the curve then F (a, b) = 0.
Solution:
Let the equation of the circle be F(x, y) = x2 + y2 + 2gx + 2fy + c.
Since the point (1, 0) lies on the circle, we can write F (1, 0) = 0.
Therefore,
1 + 2g + c = 0 ...1)
Similarly, the point (0, -6) also lies on the circle therefore, F (0, -6) = 0.
Therefore,
36 - 12f + c = 0 ...2)
Similarly, the point (3, 4) also lies on the circle therefore F (3, 4) = 0.
9 + 16 + 6g + 8f + c = 0
25 + 6g + 8f + c = 0 ...3)
Solving the above three simultaneous equations we get:
g=−471,;f=;847,;c=;269
Therefore, the equation of the circle is given by:
x2+;y2−;2(471)x+2(847)y+;269=0
x2+;y2−;(271)x+(447)y+;269=0
4x2+;4y2−;142x+47y+;138=0
Therefore, the equation of the circle passing through the points (1, 0), (0, -6) and (3, 4) is
4x2+;4y2−;142x+47y+;138=0.

Question 59
A variable plane passes through a fixed point (a, b, c) and cuts the axes in A, B and C respectively. The locus of the center of the sphere OABC, O being the origin, is
Now, we will find point of intersection on X- axis, so y = 0, z = 0,
x2+02+02−2px−2q(0)−2(0)s=0⇒x2−2px=0
⇒ x(x - 2p) = 0
∴ x = 0, OR x = 2p
Plane cut at point (2p, 0, 0) on X-axis
Similarly, we will find point of intersection on Y- axis, so x = 0, z = 0,
02+y2+02−2p(0)−2qy−2(0)s=0⇒y2−2q=0
∴ y = 0, y = 2q
Plane cut at point (0, 2q, 0) on Y-axis
Also, we will find point of intersection on Z- axis, so x = 0, y = 0,
02+02+z2−2p(0)−2q(0)−2zs=0⇒z2−2s=0
∴ z = 0, z = 2s
Plane cut at point (0, 0, 2s) on Z-axis
So, equation of plane will be 2px+2qy+2sz=1
⇒21(px+qy+sz)=1
⇒px+qy+sz=2
But plane passing through fixed point (a, b, c)
∴ x = a, y = b, z = c
So, pa+qb+sc=2
Now, for the locus of center of sphere p = x, q = y, s = z
⇒ xa+yb+zc=2
Hence, option (3) is correct
Question 60
The equation of the plane passing through the line of intersection of the planes x + y + z = 1, 2x + 3y + 4z = 7, and perpendicular to the plane x - 5y + 3z = 5 is given by
The given function is continuous through out the given domain but we will get the sharp corner at x = 1 when we will draw the graph of the function given function so at x = 1, the function is not differentiable.
Here, f(x)=1−x2;for;0<x<1
∴f′(x)=dxd(f(x))
=dxd(1−x2)
=−2x;for;0<x<1
So option 3 is correct.
Question 69
Which one of the following is correct in respect of the function f(x) = x (x - 1) (x + 1)?
AOption (a)
The local maximum value is larger than local minimum value
BOption (b)
The local maximum value is smaller than local minimum value
The local maximum value is larger than local minimum value
Why this answer is correct
Concept:
Consider a function y = f(x) on a defined interval of x.
The function attains extreme values (the value can be maximum or minimum or both).
For maxima:
Local maxima: A point is local maxima of a function if there is some other point where the maximum value is greater than the local maxima but that point doesn’t exist nearby local maxima.
Global maxima: It is the point where there is no other point has in the domain for which function has more the value than global maxima.
For minima: Same as in the maxima but in place of maximum value minimum values are considered.
Stationary Points: Points where the derivative of the function is zero i.e., f’(x) = 0. The points can be:
Inflection point
Local maxima
Local minima
Second derivative test: Let the function has a stationary point x = a
If (dx2d2f)x=a<0 then x = a, is point of maxima.
If (dx2d2f)x=a>0 then x = a, is point of minima.
Calculation:
Given: f(x) = x (x - 1) (x + 1)
Let’s find out the stationary point i.e., f’(x) = 0
f (x) = x (x - 1) (x + 1)
⇒ f (x) = x (x2 – 1)
⇒ f (x) = x3 – x
Differentiating both sides w.r.t x, we get
⇒ f’(x) = 3x2 – 1
Again differentiating w.r.t x, we get
⇒ f’’(x) = 6x
For maxima and minima f’(x) = 0
⇒ 3x2 – 1 = 0
∴ x = ± 1/√3
Stationary points
f’’(x) at Stationary points
Maxima or Minima
1/√3
> 0
Minima
- 1/√3
< 0
Maxima
At x = 1/√3 function gives minimum value ⇒ f (x = 1/√3) = -6/√3
At x = - 1/√3 function gives maximum value ⇒ f (x = -1/√3) = +6/√3
Hence, the local maximum value (6/√3) is greater than the local minimum value (-6/√3).
Question 70
Consider the following statements:
Derivative of f(x) may not exist at some point.
Derivative of f(x) may exist finitely at some point.

Let f(n)=[41+1000n], where [x] denote the integral part of x. Then the value of \(\mathop \sum \limits_{{\rm{n}} = 1}^{1000} {\rm{f}}\left( {\rm{n}} \right)\) is
Where u is the function u(x) and v is the function v(x)
ILATE Rule: Usually, the preference order of this rule is based on some functions such as Inverse, Logarithm, Algebraic, Trigonometric and Exponent.
Calculation:
To find: ∫lnx1dx−∫(lnx)21dx=?
Let, I=∫lnx1dx−∫(lnx)21dx
⇒I=∫[lnx1−(lnx)21]dx
Put, ln x = t
⇒ x = et (logex=t⇒x=et)
dx = et dt (taking derivative)
I=∫[lnx1−(lnx)21]dx
=∫et[(t1)−(t21)]dt
=∫(t1)etdt−∫(t21)etdt …. (1)
Now, ∫(t1)etdt=t1∫etdt−∫dtd(t1)∫etdt; (integration by part)
⇒∫(t1)etdt=tet−∫−t2etdt
=tet+∫t2etdt …. (2)
I=∫(t1)etdt−∫(t21)etdt (from (1))
⇒tet+∫t2etdt−∫(t21)etdt (from (2))
=tet+C
Now, t = ln x
∴I=lnxelnx+c
⇒I=lnxx+c (elnx = x)
Hence, option (1) is correct.
Question 89
A cylindrical jar without a lid has to be constructed using a given surface area of a metal sheet. If the capacity of the jar is to be maximum, then the diameter of the jar must be k times the height of the jar. The value of k is
Surface area of cylinder without a lid (A) = 2πrh + πr2
Volume of cylinder (V) = πr2h
If volume is maximum, then dV/dr = 0
Here, r = radius, h = height
Calculation:
Given: d = k × h,
Where, d = diameter, h = height
To find: k =?
A = 2πrh + πr2
⇒ 2πrh = A - πr2
⇒h=2πrA−2r (1)
We have,
V = πr2 h
=πr2(2πrA−2r;) (from (1))
=2Ar−2πr3
Capacity/volume is maximum so drdV=0,
drdV=drd(2Ar−2πr3)
=2A−23πr2
=21(A−3πr2)=0
⇒ A = 3πr2
Put, A = 3πr2 in equation (1),
h=2πr3πr2−2r
⇒h=23r−21r
⇒ h = r
We know diameter (d) = 2 × r
And given that, diameter (d) = k × h
∴ 2 × r = k × h
⇒ k = 2 (∵ h = r)
Hence, option (2) is correct.
Question 90

Greatest integer function: It is denoted as [x], it indicates the integral part of real number x which is nearest and smaller integer to x.
For example: [2.4] = 2, [4] = 4, [-3.2] = -4
Note:
If n is any integer, then:
x→n−lim[x]=n−1
x→n+lim[x]=n
Continuity: A function f(x) is said to be continuous at a point x = a, in its domain if x→alimf(x)=f(a) exists or its graph is a single unbroken curve.
f(x) is Continuous at x = a ⇔ x→a+limf(x);=;x→a−limf(x);=;x→alimf(x)
Calculation:
Given: g is a greatest integer function
f(x) = (g(x))2 - g(x)
So, let g(x) = [x]
∴ f(x) = [x]2 - [x]
⇒ f(x) = [x]{[x] - 1}
Calculating the limit at x = c, where c is an integer
Eliminating arbitrary constant: Let there be n arbitrary constants in a given differential equation. So differentiate the given equation up to nth order. And from those n equations try to eliminate the arbitrary constants.
Calculation:
Given:
y = A [sin (x + C) + cos (x + C)] …. (1)
Since, we have to eliminate two arbitrary constant, thus we have to get a 2nd order differential equation.
Differentiating equation (1) w.r.t x
⇒ y’ = A [cos (x + C) - sin (x + C)]
Now, again differentiating w.r.t x we get,
⇒ y’’ = A [-sin (x + C) - cos (x + C)]
⇒ y’’ = -A [sin (x + C) + cos (x + C)]
⇒ y’’ = -y
⇒ y’’ + y = 0

Consider the following statements:
Statement I: x > sin x for all x > 0
Statement II: f(x) = x - sin x is an increasing function for all x > 0
Which one of the following is correct is respect of the above statements?
AOption (a)
Both Statement I and Statement II are true and Statement II is the correct explanation of Statement I
BOption (b)
Both Statement I and Statement II are true and Statement II is not the correct explanation of Statement I
Both Statement I and Statement II are true and Statement II is the correct explanation of Statement I
Why this answer is correct
Concept:
Monotonic function: If a function is differentiable on the interval (a, b) and if the function is increasing/strictly increasing or decreasing/strictly decreasing, then the function is known as monotonic function.
First derivative test:
If dxdf(x)≥0 for all x in (a, b) then, f(x) is an increasing function in (a, b).
If dxdf(x)≤0 for all x in (a, b) then, f(x) is an decreasing function in (a, b).
For strictly increasing or decreasing:
dxdf(x)>0 for strictly increasing.
dxdf(x)<0 for strictly decreasing.
Calculation:
Let f(x) = x - sin x
Now, differentiating both sides w.r.t x
⇒ f’(x) = 1 - cos x
We know, -1 ≤ cos x ≤ 1 for all x > 0
⇒ 1 ≥ -cos x ≥ -1
⇒ 2 ≥ 1 - cos x ≥ 0
∴ f’(x) ≥ 0 for all x > 0
Hence, f(x) is an increasing function for all x > 0.
And since, f(x) is an increasing function for all x > 0, then x > sin x for all x > 0.
Hence, both statement I & II are correct and statement II is correct explanation of statement I.
Question 94
The solution of the differential equation dxdy=ϕ(x)yϕ′(x)−y2 is
Determinant: If \({\rm{A}} = \left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {{{\rm{a}}{11}}}&{{{\rm{a}}{12}}}&{{{\rm{a}}{13}}}\ {{{\rm{a}}{21}}}&{{{\rm{a}}{22}}}&{{{\rm{a}}{23}}}\ {{{\rm{a}}{31}}}&{{{\rm{a}}{32}}}&{{{\rm{a}}_{33}}} \end{array}} \right]\) then determinant of A is given by:
First make sure the number of columns of first matrix is equal to number of rows of second matrix.
Multiply elements of each row of first matrix to elements of each column of second matrix.
Let A = [aij]m × p & B = [bij]p × n then AB = [cij]m × n where \({{\rm{c}}{{\rm{ij}}}} = \mathop \sum \limits{{\rm{k}} = 1}^{\rm{p}} \left( {{{\rm{a}}{{\rm{ik}}}}{{\rm{b}}{{\rm{kj}}}}} \right)\).
Formulas used:
Let A = [aij]m × n be a matrix then kA = [bij]m × n where bij = kaij
z = x + iy where x and y are real values and z is complex number.
Re (z) = x, imaginary part of z = y.
Equation of circle x2 + y2 = r2
Equation of ellipse a2x2;+b2y2=1
Equation of Parabola y2 = 4ax, x2 = 4ay
Equation of hyperbola a2x2−;b2y2=1
If a2 = b2 then hyperbola is called rectangular hyperbola and x2 − y2 = a2 is the general form of rectangular hyperbola
Calculation:
⇒ Re (z2 – i) = 2
Put z = x + iy
Let’s find the value of z2 – i
⇒ (x + iy)2 - i
⇒ x2 + 2xyi – y2 – i ...[(a+b)2=a2+2ab+b2]
Now take real part and imaginary part collectively
⇒ (x2 – y2) + i (2xy – 1)
So the real part (z2 – i)
⇒ Re (z2 – i) = x2 – y2 = 2
⇒ x2 – y2 = 2
So it is a rectangular hyperbola.
Question 100
If p + q + r = a + b + c = 0, then the determinant \(\left| {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {{\rm{pa}}}&{{\rm{qb}}}&{{\rm{rc}}}\ {{\rm{qc}}}&{{\rm{ra}}}&{{\rm{pb}}}\ {{\rm{rb}}}&{{\rm{pc}}}&{{\rm{qa}}} \end{array}} \right|\) equals
Determinant: If \({\rm{A}} = \left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {{{\rm{a}}{11}}}&{{{\rm{a}}{12}}}&{{{\rm{a}}{13}}}\ {{{\rm{a}}{21}}}&{{{\rm{a}}{22}}}&{{{\rm{a}}{23}}}\ {{{\rm{a}}{31}}}&{{{\rm{a}}{32}}}&{{{\rm{a}}_{33}}} \end{array}} \right]\) then determinant of A is given by:
Probability: It is a measure of likelihood of an event to occur.
Probability of an event to occur, P(E) =total;outcomesfavourable;outcomes
Note:
Combination is the number of ways in which we can select a group of objects from a set. For example, selecting r things from set of n things is given as nCr.
Calculation:
Number of ways for selecting one man and one woman = 2C1 × 2C1
Number of ways for selecting two persons from group of four = 4C2
Probability of committee having one man and one woman =;4C2;2C1;×;2C1
=24×32×2
= 2/3
Question 102
Let a die be loaded in such a way that even faces are twice likely to occur as the odd faces. What is the probability that a prime number will show up when the die is tossed?
The Sum of the probability of all outcomes is equal to one. Let A and B be two events then:
P(A) + P(B) = 1
Calculation:
Sample space = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}
Let the probability of face coming up to be odd be p.
So, the probability of face coming up to be even be 2p.
So, we know sum of probability of all outcomes is equal to one.
P(odd face) + P(even face) = 1
⇒ P(1) + P(3) + P(5) + P(2) + P(4) + P(6)
⇒ x + x + x + 2x + 2x + 2x = 1
⇒ 9x = 1
⇒ x = 1/9
Now, the prime numbers in sample space are 2, 3, 5
So, probability that a prime number will show up = P(2) + P(3) + P(5)
= 2x + x + x
= 4x
= 4/9
Question 103
Let the sample space consist of non-negative integers up to 50, X denote the numbers which are multiples of 3 and Y denote the odd numbers. Which of the following is/are correct?
1. P(X)=258
2. P(Y)=21
Select the correct answer using the code given below.
The coefficient of variation is sometimes referred to the standard
deviation because the value of the coefficient of variation is
independent of the unit of measurement scale
So, statement (1) is incorrect.
Range is difference between largest value and smallest value. So, it defines how much the value is spread or dispread.
So, statement (2) is correct.
Mean deviation is minimum when measured around median.
So, statement (3) is correct.
Question 106
Given that the arithmetic mean and standard deviation of a sample of 15 observations are 24 and 0 respectively. Then which one of the following is the arithmetic mean of the smallest five observations in the data?
The product of regression coefficient of y on x and regression coefficient of x on y is always less than or equal to 1. So \({{\rm{b}}{{\rm{xy}}}} \times {{\rm{b}}{{\rm{yx}}}} \le 1\) where bxy and byx are coefficient of regression.
The signs of both coefficients should be same.
Calculation:
We know that the signs of both coefficients should be same.
So option 2 and 3 can’t be answer because both coefficient are of different sign.
We will check 1 option and 4 option because both have same sign so we will check product of both coefficient which should be less than equal to 1.
Checking 4th option
⇒31×310≤1
⇒910≤1
⇒1.11≤1 Not true so it can’t be answer
Checking 1st option
⇒ 1 × 1 ≤ 1
⇒1≤1 It is true so it is the right answer
Question 108
Let A and B be two events with P(A)=31,;P(B)=61 and P(A∩B)=121. What is the P(B|A̅) equal to?
Binomial distribution: If a random variable X has binomial distribution as B (n, p) with n and p as parameters, then the probability of random variable is given as:
P( X = k) = nCk pk (1 - p)(n - k)
Where, n is number of observations, p is the probability of success & (1 - p) is probability of failure.
Properties:
Mean of the distribution (μX) = n × p
The variance (σ2x) = n × p × (1 - p)
Standard deviation (σx) = √{np(1 - p)}
Calculation:
Given:
Mean = n × p = 2/3 …. (1)
Variance = n × p × (1 - p) = 5/9 …. (2)
Dividing equation (1) by equation (2)
npnp(1−p)=3295
⇒ (1 - p) = 5/6
⇒ p = 1/6
Put p = 1/6 in equation (1)
n × (1/6) = 2/3
⇒ n = 4
Now, P(X = 2) = 4C2 × (1/6)2 × (1 - 1/6)(4 - 2)
P(X = 2) = 6 × (1/6)2 × (5/6)2
⇒P(x=2)=6425
⇒P(X=2)=21625
Question 110
The probability that a ship safely reaches a part is 31. The probability that out of 5 ships, at least 4 ships would arrive safely is
Binomial distribution: If a random variable X has binomial distribution as B (n, p) with n and p as parameters, then the probability of random variable is given as:
P(X = k) = nCk pk (1 - p)(n - k)
Where, n is number of observations, p is the probability of success & (1 - p) is probability of failure.
Calculation:
Given:
Success of a ship to reach the port safely = p = 1/3
Probability that out of 5 ships, at least 4 should arrive = P(X = 4) + P(X = 5)
In a multiple-choice test, an examinee either knows the correct answer with probability p, or guesses with probability 1 - p. The probability of answering a question correctly is m1 , if he or she merely guesses. If the examinee answers a question correctly, the probability that he or she really knows the answer is
Where, σ2 is variance, μ is Mean and N is Total numbers of observation
The coefficient of variation expresses the standard deviation as a percentage of the sample mean. ⇒CV=μσ×100
Where, σ is standard deviation and μ is mean of population
Calculation:
Variance is unaffected by change of origin and change of scale.
Variance is independent of change of origin as the change in origin is uniformly added to all the values and hence the mean also and hence, when (xi−μ)2 is calculated, it remains unaffected.
For example: x1 + 5, x2 + 5 ……… xn+5 than mean and xi both will change in same manner so while we calculate (xi−μ)2 it won’t change.
But, change of scale alters all values unevenly and hence, variance changes.
For example: 2x1, 2x2 …………. 2xn than mean and xi both will change so variance also change.
So that first statement is not completely right
Coefficient of variance is independent of the unit of observations.
The coefficient of variation expresses the standard deviation as a percentage of the sample mean. CV=μσ×100
Both σ, μ have same unit so it gets cancel out.
So, CV is independent of the unit of variance 2nd statement is right.
Question 119
Five sticks of length 1, 3, 5, 7 and 9 feet are given. Three of these sticks are selection at random. What is the probability that the selected sticks can form a triangle?
Condition of triangle: Let a, b, c be the length of sides of the triangle, then:
Sum of smaller sides should be greater than third side, i.e., a + b > c
Probability: It is a measure of likelihood of an event to occur.
Probability of an event to occur, P(E) =total;outcomesfavourable;outcomes
Note:
Combination is the number of ways in which we can select a group of objects from a set. For example, selecting r things from set of n things is given as nCr
Calculation:
Given: five length of sticks 1, 3, 5, 7, 9 feet
Condition of a triangle to be formed, if a, b, c be length of sides of triangle then:
a + b > c
Total number of cases = 5C3 = 10
Cases from which triangles can be formed:
3 + 5 > 7
3 + 7 > 9
5 + 7 > 9
Number of favourable outcomes = 3
So, probability that triangle will be formed = 3/10 = 0.3
Question 120
The coefficient of correlation when coefficients of regression are 0.2 and 1.8 is
