Q2)A box contains 10 blue socks and 4 red socks. Find the number
of ways two socks can be drawn from the box if :
The total will be 10 + 4 = 14 so:
𝟏𝟒.𝟏𝟑
a)They can be any color: n = C(𝟏𝟒
𝟐
)=( ) = 91.
𝟐.𝟏
𝟏𝟎.𝟗
b) They must be the same color: There are n = C(𝟏𝟎
𝟐
)=( ) = 45
𝟐.𝟏
𝟒.𝟑
ways to choose 2 blue socks , and n = C(𝟒𝟐) = ( ) = 6 ways to choose
𝟐.𝟏
2 red socks. So, by the sum rule n = 45 + 6 = 51.

Q3)A fair coin is tossed 5 times .What is the probability that there
will be at least 2 heads.
The total probabilities will be: 25 = 32.
So , C(𝟓𝟐) + C(𝟓𝟑) + C(𝟓𝟒) + C(𝟓𝟓) = 10 + 10 + 5 + 1 = 26.
𝟐𝟔 𝟏𝟑
Hance, it’ll be: n = = .

Q4)A fair coin is tossed three times what the probability that:
The total probabilities will be: 23 = 8.
𝟒 𝟏
i)First toss is heads = = = 0.5.
𝟖 𝟐
𝟒 𝟏
ii) Second toss is heads = = = 0.5.
𝟖 𝟐
𝟐 𝟏
iii) Exactly two heads in a row. = = = 𝟎. 𝟐𝟓.
