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.

A) 43929 B) 59049
C) 15120 D) 0
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 43929

Explanation:

Number of words with 5 letters from given 9 alphabets formed = 95

 

Number of words with 5 letters from given 9 alphabets formed such that no letter is repeated is = 9P5

 

Number of words can be formed which have at least one letter repeated =  95 - 9P5

 

= 59049 - 15120

 

= 43929

Q:

The top and bottom of a tower were seen to be at angles of depression 30° and 60° from the top of a hill of height 100 m. Find the height of the tower ?

A) 42.2 mts B) 33.45 mts
C) 66.6 mts D) 58.78 mts
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 66.6 mts

Explanation:

ht1488353450.jpg image

From above diagram
AC represents the hill and DE represents the tower

Given that AC = 100 m

angleXAD = angleADB = 30° (∵ AX || BD )
angleXAE = angleAEC = 60° (∵ AX || CE)

Let DE = h

Then, BC = DE = h, AB = (100-h) (∵ AC=100 and BC = h), BD = CE

tan 60°=AC/CE => √3 = 100/CE =>CE = 100/√3 ----- (1)

tan 30° = AB/BD => 1/√3 = 100−h/BD => BD = 100−h(√3)
∵ BD = CE and Substitute the value of CE from equation 1
100/√3 = 100−h(√3) => h = 66.66 mts

The height of the tower = 66.66 mts.
