A bag contains n white and n red balls. ...

A bag contains `n` white and `n` red balls. Pairs of balls are drawn without replacement until the bag is empty. Show that the probability that each pair consists of one white and one red ball is `(2^n)/(^(2n)C_n)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Total no. of ways of selecting `n` pairs `=C_{n}^{2 n}`
No. of ways of selecting `n` pairs each with one white and one red
`=2 times 2 times 2 times 2 times 2 ldots . n` times
`=2^{{n}}`
`Rightarrow` Probability ` (2^n)/(\ ^(2n)C_n)`.
