Q:

When four fair dice are rolled simultaneously, in how many outcomes will at least one of the dice show 3?

A) 620 B) 671
C) 625 D) 567
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 671

Explanation:

When 4 dice are rolled simultaneously, there will be a total of 6 x 6 x 6 x 6 = 1296 outcomes.

 

The number of outcomes in which none of the 4 dice show 3 will be 5 x 5 x 5 x 5 = 625 outcomes.

 

Therefore, the number of outcomes in which at least one die will show 3 = 1296 – 625 = 671

Q:

Consider the following statements:

1) The perimeter of a triangle is greater than the sum of its three medinas.

2) In any triangle ABC, if D is any point on BC, then AB + BC + CA > 2AD.

Which of the above statements is/are correct?

A) 1 only B) 2 only
C) Both 1 and 2 D) Neither 1 nor 2
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) Both 1 and 2

Explanation:
Let ABC be the triangle and D. E and F are midpoints of BC, CA and AB respectively.
Recall that the sum of two sides of a triangle is greater than twice the median bisecting the third side,(Theorem to be remembered)
Hence in ΔABD, AD is a median
⇒
AB + AC > 2(AD)
Similarly, we get
BC + AC > 2CF
BC + AB > 2BE
On adding the above inequations, we get
(AB + AC) + (BC + AC) + (BC + AB )> 2AD + 2CD + 2BE
2(AB + BC + AC) > 2(AD + BE + CF)
∴
AB + BC + AC > AD + BE +CF
 
2.
To prove: AB + BC + CA > 2AD
Construction: AD is joined
Proof: In triangle ABD,
AB + BD > AD [because, the sum of any two sides of a triangle is always greater than the
third side]
----
1
In triangle ADC,
AC + DC > AD [because, the sum of any two
sides of a tri
angle is always greater than the
third side]
----
2
Adding 1 and 2 we get,
AB + BD + AC + DC > AD + AD
=> AB + (BD + DC) + AC > 2AD
=> AB + BC + AC > 2AD
Hence proved
