Then the number of elements in the set \left\{A ⊂ S: P\left(A\right) \ge \dfrac{4}{5}\right\} is _____.

Correct answer

0

Step-by-step solution

Given,

P(A)≥45P\left(A\right) \ge \dfrac{4}{5}

AA is subset of SS hence

AA can have elements;

type 11:\left\right)

type 22: \left\{{E}_{1}\right\}, \left\{{E}_{2}\right\}, \ldots \ldots \left\{{E}_{8}\right\}</p><p>type</p><p>type3:{E1,E2},{E1,E3}……{E1,E8}: \left\{{E}_{1}, {E}_{2}\right\}, \left\{{E}_{1}, {E}_{3}\right\} \ldots \ldots \left\{{E}_{1}, {E}_{8}\right\}

⋮⋮

⋮⋮

type 66: \left\{{E}_{1}, {E}_{2}, \ldots \ldots . {E}_{5}\right\}, \ldots \ldots \left\{{E}_{4}, {E}_{5}, {E}_{6}, {E}_{7}, {E}_{8}\right\}</p><p>type</p><p>type7:{E1,E2,…….E6},……{E3,E4,……….E8}: \left\{{E}_{1}, {E}_{2}, \ldots \ldots . {E}_{6}\right\}, \ldots \ldots \left\{{E}_{3}, {E}_{4}, \ldots \ldots \ldots . {E}_{8}\right\}

type 88: \left\{{E}_{1}, {E}_{2}, \ldots \ldots . {E}_{7}\right\}\left\{{E}_{2}, {E}_{3}, \ldots \ldots . {E}_{8}\right\}</p><p>type</p><p>type9:{E1,E2,……E8}: \left\{{E}_{1}, {E}_{2}, \ldots \ldots {E}_{8}\right\}

As P(A)≥45P\left(A\right) \ge \dfrac{4}{5};

Note: Type 11 to Type 44 elements can not be in set AA as maximum probability of type 44 elements.

\left\{{E}_{5}, {E}_{6}, {E}_{7}, {E}_{8}\right\}isis\dfrac{5}{36} + \dfrac{6}{36} + \dfrac{7}{36} + \dfrac{8}{36} = \dfrac{13}{18} < \dfrac{4}{5}</p><p>NowforType</p><p>Now for Type5acceptableelementslet′scallprobabilityasacceptable elements let's call probability as{P}_{5}</p><p></p><p>{P}_{5} = \dfrac{{n}_{1} + {n}_{2} + {n}_{3} + {n}_{4} + {n}_{5}}{36} \ge \dfrac{4}{5}</p><p></p><p>⇒ {n}_{1} + {n}_{2} + {n}_{3} + {n}_{4} + {n}_{3} \ge 28 . 8</p><p>Hence,</p><p>Hence,2possibleways{E5,E6,E7,E8,E3orE4}possible ways \left\{{E}_{5}, {E}_{6}, {E}_{7}, {E}_{8}, {E}_{3}or{E}_{4}\right\}

P6=n1+n1+n3+n4+n3+n6≥28.8{P}_{6} = {n}_{1} + {n}_{1} + {n}_{3} + {n}_{4} + {n}_{3} + {n}_{6} \ge 28 . 8

⇒9⇒ 9 possible ways

P7⇒n1+n1+………+n7≥28.8{P}_{7} ⇒ {n}_{1} + {n}_{1} + \ldots \ldots \ldots + {n}_{7} \ge 28 . 8

⇒7⇒ 7 possible ways

P8⇒n1+n1+……+nn≥28.8{P}_{8} ⇒ {n}_{1} + {n}_{1} + \ldots \ldots + {n}_{n} \ge 28 . 8

⇒1⇒ 1 possible way

Total =19= 19
