In two dice game, the player take turns to roll both dice, they can roll as many times as they want in one turn. A player scores the sum of the two dice thrown and gradually reaches a higher score as they continue to roll. If a single number 1 is thrown on either die, the score for that whole turn is lost. Two dice are thrown simultaneously. What is the probability of getting the sum of atleast 10? |
|
Answer» `(5)/(12)` Thus number of favourable outcomes, `N(E_(3))=6` P(sum of atleast 10), `P(E_(3))=(n(E_(3)))/(n(S))=(6)/(36)=(1)/(6))` Thus ( c ) is correct option. |

Answer» Solution :LET P (X,y) be the required point. Given that, `"" PA-PB` `implies""PA^(2)=PB^(2)` `implies""(x+5)^(2)+(y-4)^(2)=(x+1)^(2)+(y-6)^(2)` `implies""x^(2)+10x+25+y^(2)-8y+16=x^(2)+2x+1+y^(2)-12y+36` `implies""8x+4y+4=0` `implies""2x+y+1=0` It shows that INFINITE points are equidistant from AB because all points on perpendicular bisector of AB will be equidistant from AB.
