Suppose a girl throws a die. If she gets a 5 or 6, she tosses a coin three times and notes the number of heads. If she gets 1, 2, 3 or 4, she tosses a coin once and notes whether a head or tail is obtained. If she obtained exactly one head, what

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`E_{1}: = 1,2,3` or 4 is appear on die

`{E}_{2}:= 5` or `6` is appear on die

`E` := exactly one head appears

` therefore P(E_{1})=frac{4}{6}=frac{2}{3} text { and } P(E_{2})=frac{2}{6}=frac{1}{3} `

`P(E | E_{1})=P(` head apperars when coin is tossed one time )`=frac{1}{2}`

and `P(E | E_{2})=P` (exactly one head appears when coin is tossed thrice )
