Two integers xandy are chosen with replacement from the set 0, 1,...

Two integers xandyx\text{and}y are chosen with replacement from the set 0,1,2,3,…..,10{ 0, 1, 2, 3, \ldots . . , 10 }. Then the probability that ∣x−y∣>5| x - y | > 5 is :

Options

  1. A30121\dfrac{30}{121}
  2. B62121\dfrac{62}{121}
  3. C60121\dfrac{60}{121}
  4. D31121\dfrac{31}{121}

Correct answer

A. 30121\dfrac{30}{121}

Step-by-step solution

Given set is {0,1,2,3,...,10}\left\{0, 1, 2, 3, . . . , 10\right\}.

So, total number of outcomes are \left(11 \times 11\right) = 121</p><p>Favourableoutcomesare:</p><p>Favourable outcomes are:

\left(0, 6\right),(0,7), \left(0, 7\right), \left(0, 8\right),(0,9), \left(0, 9\right), \left(0, 10\right), (1,7),(1,8),(1,9),(1,10)\left(1, 7\right), \left(1, 8\right), \left(1, 9\right), \left(1, 10\right), \left(2, 8\right),(2,9),(2,10),(3,9), \left(2, 9\right), \left(2, 10\right), \left(3, 9\right), \left(3, 10\right),(4,10), \left(4, 10\right) 

And the samenumberofelementswhen xandsame number of elements when x\text{and}y are interchanged.

So, the number of favourable outcomes are 3030.

So, the required probability is given by P(E)=30121P\left(E\right)=\dfrac{30}{121}.
