====== Question 7 & 8 Review Exercise 6 ====== Solutions of Question 7 & 8 of Review Exercise 6 of Unit 06: Permutation, Combination and Probablity. This is unit of A Textbook of Mathematics for Grade XI is published by Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Textbook Board (KPTB or KPTBB) Peshawar, Pakistan. =====Question 7(i)===== If $P(A)=0.8, P(B)=0.5$ and $P(B / A)=0.4$, find $P(A \cap B)$ ====Solution==== We know that: \begin{align} P(B \mid A)&=\dfrac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} \\ \Rightarrow P(A \cap B)&=P(B \mid A) \cdot P(A)\\ &=0.4 \times 0.8=0.32\end{align} =====Question 7(ii)===== If $P(A)=0.8, P(B)=0.5$ and $P(B / A)=0.4$, find $P(A / B)$ ====Solution==== We know that $$P(A \mid B)=\dfrac{P(A \cap B)}{P(B)}=\dfrac{0.32}{0.5}=0.64$$ =====Question 7(iii)===== If $P(A)=0.8, P(B)=0.5$ and $P(B / A)=0.4$, find $P(A \cup B)$ ====Solution==== \begin{align} P(A \cup B)&=P(A)+P(B)-P(A \cap B) \\ \Rightarrow P(A \cup B)&=0.8+0.5-0.32=0.98\end{align} =====Question 8===== How many six digits telephone numbers can be constructed with the digits $0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9$ if each number starts with $35$ and no-digits appear more than once? ====Solution==== If each telephone number starts with $35.$ It means have to fill the first two places with these two digits, then the remaining digits are: $$10-2=8$$ We have to fill the remaining four places with these $8$ digits, so the event $E_1$ occurs with $m_1=8$ ways, $E_2$ with $m_2=7, E_3$ with $m_3=5$ and $E_4$ occurs with $m_4=4$ different ways. Thus by fundamental principle of multiplication, the total telephone that can be formed with the given digits and each one starts with $25$ are: $$m_1 \cdot m_2 \cdot m_3 \cdot m_4=8 \cdot 7.6 \cdot 5=1680 $$ ====Go To==== [[math-11-kpk:sol:unit06:Re-ex6-p4 |< Question 5 & 6 ]] [[math-11-kpk:sol:unit06:Re-ex6-p6|Question 9 & 10 >]]
