Number System
A box contains 5 red, 4 black and 4 blue balls. If 3 balls are drawn randomly from the box, what is the probability that there are exactly 2 blue balls in the three drawn balls ?
Total balls = 5 + 4 + 4 = 13∴ n(S) = 13C3 = 2862 blue balls can be selected from 4 balls in 4C2 = 6 ways and the remaining one ball is to be selected from 9 balls in 9C1 = 9 ways ∴ n(E) = 6 x 9∴ P(E) = 6 x 9/286 = 27/143
Let the numbers be x, x + 2, x + 4, x + 6, and x + 8Avg = x + x + 2 + x + 4 + x + 6 + x + 8/5 = 40Therefore, 5x + 20 = 200Therefore, x = 180/5 = 36Therefore, r = x + 4 = 40 s = x + 6 = 42Therefore, Product = 1680
Let the age of the son be x and the age of the father be y.Therefore, x + y = 65 ..........(i)or, 2 x (x + 5) = (y + 5)or, 2x + 10 = y + 5or, 2x - y = 5 ...................(ii)From equations (i) and (ii), x = 20, y = 45
