MCQ 11 Mark
If A = {1, 2, 4}, B = {2, 4, 5}, c = {2, 5}, then (A - B) × (B - C) is
  • {(1, 4)}
  • B
    (2, 5)
  • C
    {(1, 2), (1, 5), (2, 5)}
  • D
    (1, 4)
Answer
Correct option: A.
{(1, 4)}
(a) {(1, 4)}
Explanation: (A – B) = {1, 2, 4} – {2, 4, 5} = {1}
and (B - C) = {2, 4, 5} – {2, 5}
= {4}
Now, (A−B) × (B − C) = {1} × {4}
= {(1, 4)}
Since, it is a set so it is written in curly braces.
Therefore, option B is correct.

MCQ 41 Mark
If A and B are two events, then $P (\bar{A} \cap B)=$
  • $P ( B )- P ( A \cap B )$
  • B
    $P(\bar{A}) P(\bar{B})$
  • C
    1 - P(A) - P(B)
  • D
    $P ( A )+ P ( B )- P ( A \cap B )$
Answer
Correct option: A.
$P ( B )- P ( A \cap B )$
(a) $P ( B )- P ( A \cap B )$
Explanation: $P(B)-P(A \cap B)$
Image
From the diagram, we get $A \cap B$ and $\bar{A} \cap B$ are mutually exclusive events such that $( A \cap B ) \cup(\bar{A} \cap B)= B$ Therefore by addition theorem of probability we have
$P(A \cap B)+P(\bar{A} \cap B)= P ( B )$
$\therefore P(A \cap B)=P(B)-P(A \cap B)$

MCQ 51 Mark
Four cards are drawn from a well-shuffled pack of 52 cards. The probability of obtaining 3 diamonds and one spade is:
  • $\frac{{ }^{13} C _3 \times{ }^{13} C _1}{{ }^{52} C _4}$
  • B
    $\frac{{ }^{13} C _3 \times{ }^{10} C _1}{{ }^{52} C _4}$
  • C
    $\frac{{ }^{26} C_2 \times{ }^{26} C_2}{{ }^{52} C_1}$
  • D
    $\frac{{ }^{26} C _4}{{ }^{52} C _4}$
Answer
Correct option: A.
$\frac{{ }^{13} C _3 \times{ }^{13} C _1}{{ }^{52} C _4}$
(a) $\frac{{ }^{13} C _3 \times{ }^{13} C _1}{{ }^{52} C _4}$
Explanation: Number of ways of drawing 4 cards from 52 cards = ${ }^{52} C _4$
In a deck of 52 cards, there are 13 diamonds and 13 spades.
$\therefore$ Number of ways of drawing 3 diamonds and one spade $={ }^{13} C _3 \times{ }^{13} C _1$
Thus the probability of obtaining 3 diamonds and one spade $=\frac{{ }^{13} C _3 \times{ }^{13} C _1}{{ }^{52} C _4}$

The vertex of the parabola $y^2=4 a(x-a)$ is
  • A
    (0, a)
  • (a, 0)
  • C
    (0, 0)
  • D
    (a, a)
Answer
Correct option: B.
(a, 0)
(b) (a, 0)
Explanation: $y^2=4 a(x-a)$
Let $Y = y$ and $X = x - a$
For standard parbola $Y^2=4 a X$ the vertex is $(0,0)$
So put $X=0$ and $Y=0$.
i.e. put $x - a =0$ and $y =0$
So vertex is $( a , 0)$

MCQ 121 Mark
If A and B are any two events having P(A ∪ B) =$\frac{2}{3}$ and $P (\bar{B})=\frac{1}{2}$, then $P ( A \cap \bar{B})$ is:
  • A
    $\frac{1}{3}$
  • B
    $\frac{2}{3}$
  • C
    $\frac{1}{2}$
  • $\frac{1}{6}$
Answer
Correct option: D.
$\frac{1}{6}$
(d) $\frac{1}{3}$
Explanation: We know that $P ( A \cap \bar{B})= P ( A - B )= P ( A \cup B )- P ( B )$
$=\frac{2}{3}-\left(1-\frac{1}{2}\right)=\frac{2}{3}-\frac{1}{2}=\frac{1}{6}$.

MCQ 131 Mark
log (1 × 2 × 3) is equal to
  • A
    log 3
  • B
    log 1
  • C
    log 2
  • log 1 + log 2 + log 3
Answer
Correct option: D.
log 1 + log 2 + log 3
(d) log 1 + log 2 + log 3
Explanation: Since, $\log _a(m n)=\log _a m+\log _a n$
One extending this rule for three variables, we get
$\log _a(m n p)=\log _a m+\log _a n+\log _a p$
Therefore, log(1 × 2 × 3) = log 1 + log 2 + log 3

MCQ 161 Mark
A shopkeeper bought a TV from a distributor at a discount of 25% of the listed price of ₹ 32000. The shopkeeper sells the TV to a consumer at the listed price. If the sales are intra-state and the rate of CST is 18%, the selling price of the TV including tax (under GST) by the distributor is
  • A
    ₹32000
  • ₹28320
  • C
    ₹24000
  • D
    ₹26160
Answer
Correct option: B.
₹28320
(b) ₹ 28320
Explanation: Listed price = ₹ 32000, discount = 25% of ₹ 32000 = ₹ 8000
$\therefore$ S.P. of distributor = ₹ 32000 - ₹ 8000 = ₹ 24000
CGST = 9% of ₹ 24000 = ₹ 2160
SGST = 9% of ₹ 24000 = ₹ 2160
$\therefore$ S.P. including tax = ₹ 24000 + ₹ 2160 + ₹ 2160 = ₹ 28320

MCQ 171 Mark
The mean and standard deviation of 100 items are 50, 5 and that of 150 items are 40, 6 respectively. What is the combined mean of all 250 items?
  • A
    43
  • B
    46
  • 44
  • D
    45
Answer
Correct option: C.
44
(c) 44
Explanation: Given that, mean of 100 items, $\bar{x}_{100}=50$
Mean of 150 items, $\bar{x}_{100}=50$ and standard deviation of 100 items, $\sigma_{100}=5$
Standard deviation of 150 items, $\sigma_{100}=6$
Here, $n _1=100, \bar{x}_{100}=50$ and $n _2=150, \bar{x}_{150}=40$
$\therefore$ Combined mean of all 250 items, $\bar{x}_{250}=\frac{n_1 \cdot \bar{x}_{100}+n_2 \cdot \bar{x}_{150}}{n_1+n_2}$
$=\frac{100 \times 50+150 \times 40}{100+150}=\frac{5000+6000}{250}=\frac{11000}{250}=44$

A bag contains 5 black balls, 4 white balls and 3 red balls. If a ball is selected random wise, the probability that it is black or red ball is
  • $\frac{2}{3}$
  • B
    $\frac{5}{12}$
  • C
    $\frac{1}{3}$
  • D
    $\frac{1}{4}$
Answer
