An insurance company selected 2000 drivers at random (i.e., without any preference of one driver over another) in a particular city to find a relationship between age and accidents. The data obtained is given in the following table: Find the probabilities of the following events for a driver chosen at random from the city: (i) The driver being in the age group 18-29 years and having exactly 3 accidents in one year. (ii) The driver being in the age group of 30-50 years and having one or more accidents in a year. (iii) Having no accidents in the year.

The normal activity of living carbon - containing matter is found to be about 15 decays per minute for every gram of carbon. This activity arises from the small proportion of radioactive ._(6)^(14)C present with the stable carbon isotope ._(6)^(12)C . When the organism is dead, its interaction with the atmosphere (which maintains the above equilibrium activity. ceases and its activity begins to drop. From the know half-life (5730 years.) of ._(6)^(14)C , and the measured activity, the age of the specimen can be approximately estimated. This is the principle of ._(6)^(14)C dating used in archaeology. Suppose a specimen from Mohenjodaro gives an activity of 9 decays per minute per gram of carbon. Estimate the approximate age of the Indus-Valley civilisation.

The half - life for radioactive decay of ""^(14)C is 5730 years . An archaeological artifact containing wood had only 80% of the ""^(14)C found in a living tree. Estimate the age of the sample .
