Q:

A room contains 3 brown, 5 black and 4 white chairs. Two chairs are picked and are put in the lawn. What is the probability that none of the chairs picked is white ?

A) 14/33 B) 14/55
C) 12/55 D) 13/33
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 14/33

Explanation:

Total number of chairs = (3 + 5 + 4) = 12.

Let S be the sample space.

Then, n(s)= Number of ways of picking 2 chairs out of 12

12×11/2×66

Let n(E) = number of events of selecting 2 chairs for selecting no white chairs.

=> 8C8×7/2×28

Therefore required probability = 28/66 = 14/33.

Q:

Which term best describes how the solar system formed?

A) Electrically B) Gradually
C) Chemically D) Rapidly
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) Gradually

Explanation:

All of us, believe that the Solar System evolved from a giant cloud of dust and gas. They believe that this dust and gas began to collapse under the weight of its own gravity. As it did so, the matter contained within this could begin moving in a giant circle, much like the water in a drain moves around the center of the drain in a circle.

At the center of this spinning cloud, a small star began to form. This star grew larger and larger as it collected more and more of the dust and gas that collapsed into it.

Further away from the center of this mass where the star was forming, there were smaller clumps of dust and gas that were also collapsing. The star in the center eventually ignited forming our Sun, while the smaller clumps became the planets, minor planets, moons, comets, and asteroids.
