Answer
47.When two dice are thrown simultaneously, each die has 6 possible outcomes.
Total number of outcomes = 36
Let E be the event of getting the the sum is at least 10,
E = {(4, 6), (5, 5), (6, 4), (5, 6), (6, 5), (6, 6)}
The number of favorable outcomes to the event E = 6
Hence, option (d) is the correct option.
48. When two dice are thrown simultaneously, each die has 6 possible outcomes.
Total number of outcomes = 36
Let A be the event of getting the same number on both dice (doubles),
A = {(1, 1), (2, 2), (3, 3), (4, 4), (5, 5), (6, 6)}
Number of outcomes for A = 6
Let E be the event of getting two different numbers on the two dice,
Number of favorable outcomes to the event E = 36 - 6 = 30
Hence, option (b) is the correct option.
49. When two dice are thrown simultaneously, each die has 6 possible outcomes.
Total number of outcomes = 36
Let E be the event that the product of the two numbers is at most 12,
E = {(1, 1), (1, 2), (1, 3), (1, 4), (1, 5), (1, 6), (2, 1), (2, 2), (2, 3), (2, 4), (2, 5), (2, 6), (3, 1), (3, 2), (3, 3), (3, 4), (4, 1), (4, 2), (4, 3), (5, 1), (5, 2), (6, 1), (6, 2)}
The number of favorable outcomes to the event E = 23
Hence, option (c) is the correct option.
50. When two dice are thrown simultaneously, each die has 6 possible outcomes.
Total number of outcomes = 36
Let E be the event of getting a multiple of 2 on one die and a multiple of 3 on the other,
E = {(2, 3), (2, 6), (4, 3), (4, 6), (6, 3), (6, 6), (3, 2), (3, 4), (3, 6), (6, 2), (6, 4)}
The number of favorable outcomes to the event E = 11
Hence, option (c) is the correct option.
