According to recent research, air turbulence has increased in various regions around the world due to climate change. Turbulence makes flights bumpy and often delays the flights. Assume that, an airplane observes severe turbulence, moderate turbulence or light turbulence with equal probabilities. Further, the chance of an airplane reaching late to the destination are 55%, 37% and 17% due to severe, moderate and light turbulence respectively. On the basis of the above information, answer the following questions :
Airplanes are by far the safest mode of transportation when the number of transported passengers are measured against personal injuries and fatality totals. Previous records state that the probability of an airplane crash is 0·00001%. Further, there are 95% chances that there will be survivors after a plane crash. Assume that in case of no crash, all travellers survive. Let E₁ be the event that there is a plane crash and E₂ be the event that there is no crash. Let A be the event that passengers survive after the journey. On the basis of the above information, answer the following questions :
A departmental store sends bills to charge its customers once a month. Past experience shows that 70% of its customers pay their first month bill in time. The store also found that the customer who pays the bill in time has the probability of 0.8 of paying in time next month and the customer who doesn't pay in time has the probability of 0.4 of paying in time the next month.
A building contractor undertakes a job to construct 4 flats on a plot along with parking area. Due to strike the probability of many construction workers not being present for the job is 0·65. The probability that many are not present and still the work gets completed on time is 0·35. The probability that work will be completed on time when all workers are present is 0·80. Let : E₁ : represent the event when many workers were not present for the job; E₂ : represent the event when all workers were present; and E : represent completing the construction work on time. Based on the above information, answer the following questions :
A shopkeeper sells three types of flower seeds A1, A2, A3. They are sold in the form of a mixture, where the proportions of these seeds are 4 : 4 : 2, respectively. The germination rates of the three types of seeds are 45%, 60% and 35% respectively.
One bag contains 4 white and 5 black balls. Another bag contains 6 white and 7 black balls. A ball, drawn at random, is transferred from the first bag to the second bag and then a ball is drawn at random from the second bag. Find the probability that the ball drawn is white.
