It is not possible to just look at pen and tell whether or not it is defective. One pen is taken out at random from this lot. Determine the probability that the pen taken out is good one 1/11 11/12 1/12 12/11 None 12. Assertion (A): Card numbered as 1,2,3….15 are put in a box and mixed, one card is than drawn at random. The probability of drawing an even number is 1/2.Reason (R): For any event E, we have 0 ≤ P (E) ≤ 1 Both A and R are True and R is not the correct explanation of A. Both A and R are True and R is the correct explanation of A R is True, But A is False A is True, But R is False. None 13. The probability of guessing the correct answer to certain question is p/4 .If the probability of not guessing the correct answer to same question is 3/4,the value of p is 3 1 4 2 None 14. 100 cards are numbered from 1 to 100.
