    Solution

    (10 Defective, 90 Non-defective)
    Required Probability of getting atleast 7 defective bulbs out 8 bulbs $=\mathrm{P}($ Exactly 7 defective bulbs $)+\mathrm{P}($ all 8 defective bulbs $)$
    $={ }^{8} \mathrm{C}_{7}\left(\frac{10}{100}\right)^{7}\left(\frac{90}{100}\right)+\left(\frac{10}{100}\right)^{8}=8\left(\frac{1}{10}\right)^{7}\left(\frac{9}{16}\right)+\left(\frac{1}{100}\right)^{8}=\frac{72+1}{108}=\frac{73}{10^{8}}$ Answer(4)

    Solution

    Event $\mathrm{E}_{1}$ : white ball is transferred
    Event $\mathrm{E}_{2}$ : Black ball is transferred

    \[ \mathrm{P}\left(\mathrm{E}_{1}\right)=\frac{6}{6+4}=\frac{3}{5}, \mathrm{P}\left(\mathrm{E}_{2}\right)=\frac{4}{6+4}=\frac{2}{5} \]

    Event X : From bag A , white ball is drawn

    \[ \begin{aligned} & \mathrm{P}(\mathrm{X})=\mathrm{P}\left(\mathrm{E}_{1}\right) \mathrm{P}\left(\frac{\mathrm{X}}{\mathrm{E}_{1}}\right)+\mathrm{P}\left(\mathrm{E}_{2}\right) \mathrm{P}\left(\frac{\mathrm{X}}{\mathrm{E}_{2}}\right) \\ & =\frac{3}{5}\left(\frac{10}{18}\right)+\frac{2}{5}\left(\frac{9}{18}\right)=\frac{30+18}{5 \times 18}=\frac{8}{15}=\frac{\mathrm{p}}{\mathrm{q}} \\ & \therefore \mathrm{p}+\mathrm{q}=23 \text { Answer }(2) \end{aligned} \]

    Solution

    $\mathrm{a}, \mathrm{b} \in\{1,2,3, \ldots, 99,100\}$
    Total cases $=100 \times 99$
    Favourable cases $a-b \geq 10$
    No of Pairs of (a,b)

    \[ \begin{array}{ll} b=1, a \geq 11 & a \rightarrow 11,12,13, \ldots, 99,100 \\ b=2, a \geq 12 & a \rightarrow 12,13,14, \ldots, 99,100 \end{array} \]
    $b=3, a \geq 13$ $a \rightarrow 13,14,15, \ldots, 99,100$ 88
    $\vdots$
    $b=88, a \geq 98$ $a \rightarrow 98,99,100$ 3
    $b=89, a \geq 99$ $a \rightarrow 99,100$ 2
    $b=90, a \geq 100$ $a \rightarrow 100$ 1

    No. of favourable ordered pair $=1+2+3+\ldots .+89+90$

    \[ =\frac{90(90+1)}{2}=45 \times 91 \]

    Required probability $=\frac{45 \times 91}{100 \times 99}=\frac{91}{220}=\frac{\mathrm{m}}{\mathrm{n}}$

    \[ \mathrm{m}+\mathrm{n}=91+220=311 \text { Answer }(311) \]

    Solution

    $\mathrm{n} \in\{1,2,3,4,5,6\}$
    $\Delta=\left|\begin{array}{ccc}1 & -n & 1 \\ 1 & n-2 & n+1 \\ 0 & n-1 & 1\end{array}\right|$
    $\Delta=-(\mathrm{n}-1)(\mathrm{n}-2)$
    For unique solution $\Delta \neq 0 \Rightarrow n \neq 1, n \neq 2$
    favourable cases $n=\{3,4,5,6\}$
    Required Probability $=\frac{4}{6}=\frac{\mathrm{k}}{6}$
    $\mathrm{k}=4, \mathrm{n}=3,4,5,6$
    required sum $=4+3+4+5+6=22$ Answer(4)

    Solution

    $\sum \mathrm{P}\left(\mathrm{x}_{\mathrm{i}}\right)=0+2 \mathrm{k}+\mathrm{k}+3 \mathrm{k}+2 \mathrm{k}^{2}+2 \mathrm{k}+\mathrm{k}^{2}+\mathrm{k}+7 \mathrm{k}^{2}=1$
    $\Rightarrow 10 \mathrm{k}^{2}+9 \mathrm{k}-1=0 \Rightarrow(10 \mathrm{k}-1)(\mathrm{k}+1)=0 \Rightarrow \mathrm{k}=\frac{1}{10}, \mathrm{k} \neq-1$
    $\mathrm{P}(3<\mathrm{x} \leq 6)=\mathrm{P}(\mathrm{x}=4)+\mathrm{P}(\mathrm{x}=5)+\mathrm{P}(\mathrm{x}=6)$ $=2 \mathrm{k}^{2}+2 \mathrm{k}+\mathrm{k}^{2}+\mathrm{k}=3 \mathrm{k}^{2}+3 \mathrm{k}=\frac{3}{100}+\frac{3}{10}=0.33$ Answer(4)

    Solution

    First Method:

    $\mathrm{P}(\mathrm{ab}$ is divisible by 3$)$
    $=\mathrm{P}(\mathrm{a} \& \mathrm{~b}$ both are multiple of 3$)+\mathrm{P}($ Exactly are of $\mathrm{a} \& \mathrm{~b}$ is multiple of 3$)$
    $=\frac{{ }^{16} \mathrm{C}_{2}}{{ }^{50} \mathrm{C}_{2}}+\frac{{ }^{16} \mathrm{C}_{1} \times{ }^{34} \mathrm{C}_{1}}{{ }^{50} \mathrm{C}_{2}}=\frac{8.15+16.34}{25(49)}=\frac{664}{1225}$
    $3 \mathrm{~K}=\{3,6,9, \ldots, 48\}$

    Second Method:

    Number which are not multiple of $3=50-16=34$
    $\mathrm{P}(\mathrm{ab}$ is divisible by 3$)=1-\mathrm{P}(\mathrm{ab}$ is not divisible by 3$)$
    $=1-\frac{{ }^{34} \mathrm{C}_{2}}{{ }^{50} \mathrm{C}_{2}}=1-\frac{17 \times 93}{25 \times 49}=\frac{1225-561}{1225}=\frac{664}{1225}$ Answer(2)

    Solution

    \[ 40=8 \times 5=2^{3} \times 5 \]

    Exponent of 2 in $60!=\left[\frac{60}{2}\right]+\left[\frac{60}{4}\right]+\left[\frac{60}{8}\right]+\left[\frac{60}{16}\right]+\left[\frac{60}{32}\right]+\left[\frac{60}{64}\right]+\cdots$

    \[ =30+15+7+3+1+0+\cdots=56 \]

    Exponent of 5 in $60!=\left[\frac{60}{5}\right]+\left[\frac{60}{25}\right]+\left[\frac{60}{125}\right]+\cdots=12+2+0=14$

    \[ 60!=2^{56} 5^{14}(\mathrm{~K})=2^{14}\left(2^{42}\right) 5^{14} \mathrm{~K}=2^{14}\left(2^{3} \times 5\right)^{14} \mathrm{~K}=2^{14}(40)^{14} \mathrm{~K} \]

    ∴ Maximum value of n is 14

    Solution

    Using 5,5,1,2,7,8,6,4 digits

    \[ \mathrm{x}=\underset{\substack{\text { Repeating } \\ \text { digit }}}{{ }^{9} \mathrm{C}_{1}} \times \underset{\substack{\text { Non repeating } \\ \text { digits }}}{{ }^{8} \mathrm{C}_{7}} \times \underset{\text { arrangement }}{\left(\frac{9!}{2!}\right)} \]

    $x=9.8 \frac{9!}{2!}=36(9!)$

    Using 1,1,7,7,4,2,5,6,9 digits
    $\mathrm{y}=\underset{\substack{\text { repeating } \\ \text { digits }}}{{ }^{9} \mathrm{C}_{2}} \times \underset{\substack{\text { Non-repeating } \\ \text { digits }}}{{ }^{7} \mathrm{C}_{5}} \times \frac{9!}{2!2!}$
    $y=\left(\frac{9.8}{2}\right)\left(\frac{7.6}{2}\right)\left(\frac{9!}{2!2!}\right)=9(7) 3.9!$
    $\frac{x}{y}=\frac{36(9!)}{9(7)(3) 9!} \Rightarrow \frac{x}{y}=\frac{4}{21} \Rightarrow 21 x=4 y$ Answer(3)
