Question

A box contains 100 tickets numbered 1, 2 ...... 100. Two tickets are chosen at random. It is given that the maximum number on the two chosen tickets is not more than 10. The minimum number on them is 5 with probability

  1. fraction numerator 1 over denominator 8 end fraction    
  2. fraction numerator 13 over denominator 15 end fraction    
  3. fraction numerator 1 over denominator 7 end fraction    
  4. None of these    

hintHint:

Formula used
P left parenthesis B divided by A right parenthesis equals fraction numerator P left parenthesis A intersection B right parenthesis over denominator P left parenthesis A right parenthesis end fraction equals fraction numerator n left parenthesis A intersection B right parenthesis over denominator n left parenthesis A right parenthesis end fraction

The correct answer is: fraction numerator 13 over denominator 15 end fraction


    Let A be the event that the maximum number on the two chosen tickets is not more than 10 i.e., the number on them less or equal than 10 and B be the event that the maximum number on them is 5, i.e., the number on them is greater or equal than 5 we have to find P left parenthesis B divided by A right parenthesis.
    Now P left parenthesis B divided by A right parenthesis equals fraction numerator P left parenthesis A intersection B right parenthesis over denominator P left parenthesis A right parenthesis end fraction equals fraction numerator n left parenthesis A intersection B right parenthesis over denominator n left parenthesis A right parenthesis end fraction
    Now the number of ways of getting a number r on the two tickets is the coefficient of x to the power of r end exponent in the expansion of
    left parenthesis x to the power of 1 end exponent plus x to the power of 2 end exponent plus x to the power of 3 end exponent plus........ plus x to the power of 100 end exponent right parenthesis to the power of 2 end exponent equals x to the power of 2 end exponent left parenthesis 1 plus x plus....... plus x to the power of 99 end exponent right parenthesis to the power of 2 end exponent
    equals x to the power of 2 end exponent open parentheses fraction numerator 1 minus x to the power of 100 end exponent over denominator 1 minus x end fraction close parentheses to the power of 2 end exponent equals x to the power of 2 end exponent left parenthesis 1 minus 2 x to the power of 100 end exponent plus x to the power of 200 end exponent right parenthesis left parenthesis 1 minus x right parenthesis to the power of negative 2 end exponent
    equals x to the power of 2 end exponent left parenthesis 1 minus 2 x to the power of 100 end exponent plus x to the power of 200 end exponent right parenthesis left parenthesis 1 plus 2 x plus 3 x to the power of 2 end exponent plus.... plus left parenthesis r plus 1 right parenthesis x to the power of r end exponent plus..... right parenthesis Thus coefficient of x to the power of 2 end exponent equals 1 comma of x to the power of 3 end exponent equals 2 comma of x to the power of 4 end exponent equals 3...... of x to the power of 10 end exponent is 9.
    Hence n left parenthesis A right parenthesis equals 1 plus 2 plus 3 plus 4 plus 5 plus 6 plus 7 plus 8 plus 9 equals 45
    and n left parenthesis A intersection B right parenthesis equals 4 plus 5 plus 6 plus 7 plus 8 plus 9 equals 39
    Hence required probability equals fraction numerator 39 over denominator 45 end fraction equals fraction numerator 13 over denominator 15 end fraction.
