Need solution for RD sharma maths class 12 chapter 30 probablity exercise Very short answer question, question 16

Answers (1)

The required probability is 3p^{2}-3p^{3}

Hint:

Use the relation ,

P(atleast two of A,B,C occurs) =  P(A\cap B\cap C')+P(A\cap B' \cap C)+P(A'\cap B \cap C)

Given:

A, B & C are three independent events such that P(A)=P(B)=P(C)=p

Explanation:

We have, P(A)=P(B)=P(C)=p

\Rightarrow P(A')=P(B')=P(C')=1-p

Now,

P(atleast two of A,B,C occurs) =  P(A\cap B\cap C')+P(A\cap B' \cap C)+P(A'\cap B \cap C)

= P(A).P(B).P(C')+P(A).P(B').P(C) +P(A').P(B).P(C)

   ( \thereforeA , B & C are independent )
=p.p(1-p)+p(1-p).p+(p-1)p.p\\ =p^{2}(1-p)+p^{2}(1-p)+p^{2}(1-p)\\ =(1-p) 3p^{2}\\ = 3p^{2}- 3p^{3}
