Let |X| denote the number of elements in set X . Let S = \ 1, 2, 3,...

Let ∣X∣\left|X\right| denote the number of elements in set X.X . Let S={1,2,3,4,5,6}beasamplespace,whereeachelementisequallylikelyS = \left\{1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6\right\} be a sample space, where each element is equally likely to occur. If A and B are independent events associated with S,thenthenumberoforderedpairs(A,B)S, then the number of ordered pairs \left(A, B\right) such that 1≤∣B∣<∣A∣,1 \le \left|B\right| < \left|A\right|, equals

Correct answer

422

Step-by-step solution

Since AA and BB are independent events
P(A∩B)=P(A)P(B)P\left(A \cap B\right) = P\left(A\right)P\left(B\right)
∣A∩B∣∣S∣=∣A∣∣S∣⋅∣B∣∣S∣\dfrac{\left|A \cap B\right|}{\left|S\right|} = \dfrac{\left|A\right|}{\left|S\right|} \cdot \dfrac{\left|B\right|}{\left|S\right|}
{∣S∣∣A∩B∣=∣A∣⋅∣B∣(∴∣x∣=numberofelementinset)\begin{cases}\left|S\right|\left|A \cap B\right| = \left|A\right| \cdot \left|B\right| & \left(∴ \left|x\right| = numberofelementinset\right)\end{cases}
