Ques. 1JEE Main 2024, 30 January (Morning Shift)
Two integers x and y are chosen with replacement from the set \0,1,2,3, ,10\. Then the probability that |x-y|>5, is :
- 31121
- 60121
- 62121
- 30121
Answer
(4) 30121
Solution
Total ordered pairs =11 11=121
|x-y|>5 |x-y| 6
x>y: x-y=6,7,8,9,10 gives 5+4+3+2+1=15 pairs (e.g. x-y=6: (6,0), ,(10,4))
y>x: another 15 pairs (by symmetry) ⇒ favourable =30
P= 30121
Answer: (4)
