38. The use of electric vehicles will curb air pollution in the long run.
The use of electric vehicle is increasing every year and estimated electric vehicles in use at any
time t is given by the function V :

5 2
where t represent the time and t 1, 2, 3,... corresponds to year 2001, 2002, 2003, ...
respectively.
Based on the above information, answer the following questions.
(i) Can the above function be used to estimate number of vehicles in the year 2000? Justify.

Sol. (i) Since t represents the time and t 1, 2, 3,... corresponds to year 2001, 2002, 2003, ...
respectively. So, for year 2000, value of t must be 0.
1 5
That means, V(0) 03 02 25 0 2 2 , which does not make any sense.

31. (a) Two numbers are selected from first six even natural numbers at random without
replacement. If X denotes the greater of two numbers selected, find the probability distribution
of X.
OR
(b) A fair coin and an unbiased die are tossed. Let A be the event, “Head appears on the coin’
and B be the event, “ 3 comes on the die”. Find whether A and B are independent events or not.
Sol. (a) First six even natural numbers are 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12.
Total no. of possible ways of selecting 2 numbers out of first 6 even natural numbers 6 C 2 15 .
Since X denotes the greater of the two numbers selected from 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 and, 12.
So, values of X : 4, 6, 8, 10, 12.
When X = 4 then, we can select just one more no. form first six even natural numbers, which is 2
(as we can select only 2 nos.). This can be done in 1 C1 way.
When X = 6 then, we can select just one more no. form first six even natural numbers, which is
either 2 or 4 (as we can select only 2 nos.). This can be done in 2 C1 ways.
When X = 8 then, we can select just one more no. form first six even natural numbers, which is
either 2 or 4 or 6 (as we can select only 2 nos.). This can be done in 3 C1 ways.
When X = 10 then, we can select just one more no. form first six even natural numbers, which is
either 2 or 4 or 6 or 8 (as we can select only 2 nos.). This can be done in 4 C1 ways.
When X = 12 then, we can select just one more no. form first six even natural numbers, which is
either 2 or 4 or 6 or 8 or 10 (as we can select only 2 nos.). This can be done in 5 C1 ways.
Therefore, the table for Probability distribution is as follows
X 4 6 8 10 12

P(X) C1 1 C1 2 C1 3 C1 4 C1 5

Note that, favorable outcomes when X = 4 : (4, 2).
Favorable outcomes when X = 6 : (6, 2), (6, 4).
Favorable outcomes when X = 8 : (8, 2), (8, 4), (8, 6).
Favorable outcomes when X = 10 : (10, 2), (10, 4), (10, 6), (10, 8).
Favorable outcomes when X = 12 : (12, 2), (12, 4), (12, 6), (12, 8), (12, 10).
