Correct Answer – D
Note that `A_(1)` is independent with all events `A_(1),A_(2),A_(3),A_(4)….,A_(12),` Now, total number of ordered pairs is 23.
`underset(22)( underbrace((1.1),(1,2),(1.3),…,(1,11)))+(1,12)`
Also that `A_(2),A_(3),andA_(3),A_(2)` are independent. Hence, there are 25 ordered pairs.
Correct Answer – A
`P(A_(2))=18/36,`
`P(A_(3))=12/36=1/3,`
`P(A_(4))=9/36=1/4`
`P(A_(5))=7/36`
`P(A_(6))=6/36=1/6`
Hence, `A_(3)` is most probable.
Correct Answer – C
`P(A_(2))=1/2,P(A_(3))=1/3,P(A_(6))=1/6`
`thereforeP(A_(2)nnA_(3))=P(A_(2))P(A_(3))`
`impliesP(A_(6))=P(A_(2))P(A_(3))`
`6/36=1/2xx1/3`
Hence, `A_(2)and A_(3)` are independent.
