1. Two spherical stars A and B have densities A and B, respectively. A and B have the same radius,

and their masses MA and MB are related by MB = 2MA. Due to an interaction process, star A loses

some of its mass, so that its radius is halved, while its spherical shape is retained, and its density

remains A. The entire mass lost by A is deposited as a thick spherical shell on B with the density of

the shell being A. If A and B are the escape velocities from A and B after the interaction process,

190 persons had symptom of fever,
220 persons had symptom of cough,
220 persons had symptom of breathing problem,
330 persons had symptom of fever or cough or both,
350 persons had symptom of cough or breathing problem or both,
340 persons had symptom of fever or breathing problem or both,
30 persons had all three symptoms (fever, cough and breathing problem).
If a person is chosen randomly from these 900 persons, then the probability that the person has at
most one symptom is _____________.

®
Ans. (0.80)
Sol. n(U) = 900
Let A  Fever, B  Cough
C  Breathing problem
 n(A) = 190, n(B) = 220, n(C) = 220
n(A  B) = 330, n(B  C) = 350,
n(A  C) = 340, n (A  B  C) = 30
Now n(AB) = n(A) + n(B) – n(AB)
 330 = 190 + 220 – n(A  B)
 n(A  B) = 80
Similarly,
350 = 220 + 220 – n(BC)
 n(BC) = 90
and 340 = 190 + 220 – n(AC)
 n(AC) = 70
 n(ABC) = (190 + 220 + 220) – (80 + 90 + 70) + 30
= 660 – 240 = 420
 Number of person without any symptom
= n () – n(A  B  C)
= 900 – 420 = 480
Now, number of person suffering from exactly one symptom

 = (n(A) + n(B) + n(C)) – 2(n(A  B) + n(B  C) + n(C  A)) + 3n(A  B  C)
= (190 + 220 + 220) – 2(80 + 90 + 70) + 3(30)
= 630 – 480 + 90 = 240
 Number of person suffering from atmost one symotom

 SECTION-3 : (Maximum Marks : 12)
 This section contains FOUR (04) Matching List Sets.
 Each set has ONE Multiple Choice Question.
 Each set has TWO lists : List-I and List-II.
 List-I has Four entries (I), (II), (III) and (IV) and List-II has Five entries (P), (Q), (R), (S) and
(T).
 FOUR options are given in each Multiple Choice Question based on List-I and List-II and ONLY
ONE of these four options satisfies the condition asked in the Multiple Choice Question.
 Answer to each question will be evaluated according to the following marking scheme:
Full Marks : +3 ONLY if the option corresponding to the correct combination is chosen;
Zero Marks : 0 If none of the options is chosen (i.e. the question is unanswered);
Negative Marks : –1 In all other cases.

rolls a fair die once, where the six faces of the die have six distinct numbers. Let 𝑥 and 𝑦 denote the

readings on the die rolled by 𝑃1 and 𝑃2, respectively. If 𝑥 > 𝑦, then 𝑃1 scores 5 points and 𝑃2 scores

0 point. If 𝑥 = 𝑦, then each player scores 2 points. If 𝑥 < 𝑦, then 𝑃1 scores 0 point and 𝑃2 scores 5

points. Let 𝑋𝑖 and 𝑌𝑖 be the total scores of 𝑃1 and 𝑃2, respectively, after playing the 𝑖𝑡ℎ round.
