11. A bag contains 12 white pearls and 18 black pearls. Two pearls are drawn in succession without replacement. Find the probability that the first pearl is white and the second is black.
Answer. Let A and B be the events of getting a white pearl in the first draw and a black pearl in the second draw respectively.
Now, P(A) = P(getting a white pearl in the first draw)
When second pearl is drawn without replacement, the probability that the second pearl is black is the conditional probability of the event B occurring when A has already occurred.
12. Find the direction cosines of the line passing through the two points (–2, 4, –5) and (1, 2, 3).
Answer. We know that the direction cosines of the line passing through two points P(x1, y1, z1) and Q(x2, y2, z2) are given by
Answer.
14. A machine produces parts that are either good (90%), slightly defective (2%), or obviously defective (8%). Produced parts get passed through an automatic inspection machine, which is able to detect any part that is obviously defective and discard it. What is the probability of the parts that make it through the inspection machine and get shipped?
Answer. Let G, SD, OD be the events that a randomly chosen part is good, slightly defective, obviously defective respectively.
Then, P(G) = 0.90, P(SD) = 0.02, and P(OD) = 0.08
Required probability = P(G | ODc)

15. If A and B are two independent events such that P (A̅∩B) = 2/15 and P (A∩B̅) = 1/6, then find P (B) – P(A).
Answer. Since A and B are independent events, therefore, Ac and B are independent and also A and Bc are independent.
∴ P(Ac ∩ B) = P (Ac) P(B) = (1 – P(A)) P(B)
and P(A ∩ Bc) = P(A) P (Bc)
= P (A) (1 – P(B)) ( A = Ac and B = Bc)
Answer.
Answer.

18. Find the equation of the plane passing through the point A(1, 2, 1) and perpendicular to the line joining the points P(1, 4, 2) and Q(2, 3, 5). Also, find the distance of this plane from the line
OR
Find the coordinates of the points on the line
which are at a distance of 2 units from the point (–2, –1, 3).
Answer. The line joining the given points
P(1, 4, 2) and Q(2, 3, 5) has direction ratios
<1 – 2, 4 – 3, 2 – 5> i.e., <– 1, 1, –3>
The plane through (1, 2, 1) and perpendicular to the
line PQ is –1(x – 1) + 1(y – 2) – 3(z – 1) = 0
⇒ x – y + 3z – 2 = 0
Since 2(1) + (–1) (–1) + (3) (–1) = 2 + 1 – 3 = 0
∴ Line is parallel to the plane.
Since, (–3, 5, 7) lies on the given line.
∴ Distance of the point (–3, 5, 7) from plane is
19. Find the area of the smaller region bounded by the ellipse
OR
Draw the graph of y = |x + 1|and using integration, find the area below y = |x + 1|, above x – axis
and between x = – 4 to x = 2.
Answer.
Thus we get two lines –x + y = 1 …(i), x + y = –1 …(ii)
Their graphs are as shown and the area to be calculated is shaded.
