 Elaborate the word dispersion
We can say that the degree of scatter of data, usually about an average value, can be the median. 
 
Question No: 18    ( Marks: 1 )
 Define population.

We can define population is the collection of individuals or objects having some common measurable characteristics.

Question No: 19    ( Marks: 2 )
 What does mean by the independence of two events:

We can define independence of two events are statistically independent if the probability of their occurring jointly equals the product of their respective probabilities. Independence of two events also know as stochastic independence.

Question No: 20    ( Marks: 3 )
 The reciprocal of the values are               

0.012, 0.0235, 0.0135
Calculate Harmonic Mean
 Harmonic mean is 250.037
   
Question No: 21    ( Marks: 5 )
 The probability that a student passes mathematics is 2/3 and the probability that he passes English is 4/9. If the probability of passing at least one course is 4/5, what is the probability that he will pass both courses?
 

Answer:
Math=2/3
English=4/9
Least one passing probability= 4/5

Math + English         =2/3+4/9
=1.11
4/5+1.11
=1.911

   
Question No: 22    ( Marks: 10 )
 A pair of dice is thrown, then
1) Find the sample space for this experiment

Suppose if A and B is the pair of dice then lets try to find out how many result we can find

  • A hit first
  • B Hit first
  • B hit Second
  • A Hit Second
  • Both Hit Equally
  • Both didn't Hit


2) Determine the probability of getting the sum 8 on the dice

3) Find the probability of getting sum 7 or 11
