Q:

A coin is tossed 5 times. What is the probability that head appears an odd number of times?

A) 1/2 B) 1/3
C) 2/3 D) 1
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 1/2

Explanation:

The possible outcomes are as follows :

5H, 5T, (H, 4T), (T, 4H), (2H, 3T) (3H, 2T), i.e. 6 outcomes in all.

Therefore the probability that head appears an odd number of times = 3/6 =1/2 (In only three outcomes out of the six outcomes, head appears an odd number of times).

Q:

Which of the following statements is not correct?

A) log10 = 1 B) log (2 + 3) = log (2 x 3)
C) log1 = 0 D) log (1 + 2 + 3) = log 1 + log 2 + log 3
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) log (2 + 3) = log (2 x 3)

Explanation:

log (2 + 3) = log 5

 

log (2 x 3) = log 2 + log 3

 


 log (2 + 3) log (2 x 3)

A) 1/5 B) 3/4
C) 2/5 D) 3/5
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 2/5

Explanation:

Probability that only one of them is selected = (prob. that brother is selected) × (prob. that sister is not selected) +  (Prob. that brother is not selected) × (Prob. that sister is selected)

Q:

A six-sided die with faces numbered 1 through 6 is rolled three times. What is the probability that the face with the number 6 on it will not face upward on all the three rolls?

A) 215/216 B) 1/216
C) 215/256 D) 1/52
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 215/216

Explanation:

Probability of getting 6 at the top once =1/6

Probability of getting 6 at the top three times =1/6 x 1/6 x 1/6 =216

Probability of no getting 6 at he top any time = 1 - 1/216 = 215/216
