A) 1/5	B) 1/7
C) 1/6	D) 1/9

Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 1/6

Explanation:

Out of 9 persons,4 can be choosen in $9 C_{4}$ ways =126.

Favourable events for given condition = $2 C_{2} * 7 C_{2}$ = 21.

So,required probability = 21/126 =1/6.

Q:

A word consists of 9 letters; 5 consonants and 4 vowels.Three letters are choosen at random. What is the probability that more than one vowel will be selected ?

A) 13/42	B) 17/42
C) 5/42	D) 3/14

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 17/42

Explanation:

3 letters can be choosen out of 9 letters in $9 C_{3}$ ways.

More than one vowels ( 2 vowels + 1 consonant or 3 vowels ) can be choosen in $(4 C_{2} * 5 C_{1}) + 4 C_{3}$ ways

Hence,required probability = $\frac{(4 C_{2} * 5 C_{1}) + 4 C_{3}}{9 C_{3}}$ = 17/42

Q:

The market value of a 10.5% stock, in which an income of Rs. 756 is derived by investing Rs. 9000, brokerage being 1/4%, is:

A) 108.25	B) 112.20
C) 124.75	D) 125.25

Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 124.75

Explanation:

For an income of Rs. 756, investment = Rs. 9000.

For an income of $R s . \frac{21}{2}$ , investment = $R s . \frac{9000}{756} \times \frac{21}{2}$ = Rs. 125.

For a Rs. 100 stock, investment = Rs. 125.

Market value of Rs. 100 stock = $R s . (125 - \frac{1}{4})$ = Rs. 124.75
