In an objective paper, there are two sections of 10 questions each.For "section 1", each question has 5 options and only one optionis correct and "section 2" has 4 options with multiple answers and marks for a question in this section is awarded only if he ticks all correct answers. Marks for each question in "sectionl 1" is 1 and in "section 2" is 3. (There is no negative marking.) If a candidate attempts only two questions by guessing, one from "section 1" and one from "section 2", the probability that he scores in both question is

An examination consists of 10 multiple choice questions, where each question has 4 options, only one of which is correct. In every question, a candidate earns 3 marks for choosing the correct opion, and -1 for choosing a wrong option. Assume that a candidate answers all questions by choosing exactly one option for each. Then find the number of distinct combinations of anwers which can earn the candidate a score from the set {15, 16,17,18, 19, 20}.
