Two coins are tossed 1000 times and the outcomes are recorded as below:

Number of heads 2 1 0
Frequency 200 550 250

Based on this information, the probability for at most one head is

विकल्प

  • `1/5`

  • `1/4`

  • `4/5`

  • `3/4`

MCQ

उत्तर

`bb(4/5)`

Explanation:

The total number of coins tossed, n(S) = 1000

Number of outcomes in which atmost one head,

n(E) = 550 + 250 = 800

= `(n(E))/(n(S))`

= `800/1000`

= `4/5`

Hence, the probability for atmost one head is `4/5`.

An organization selected 2400 families at random and surveyed them to determine a relationship between income level and the number of vehicles in a family. The information gathered is listed in the table below:-

Monthly income

(in Rs.)

Vehicles per family
0 1 2 Above 2
Less than 7000 10 160 25 0
7000 – 10000 0 305 27 2
10000 – 13000 1 535 29 1
13000 – 16000 2 469 59 25
16000 or more 1 579 82 88
