Q89.A person throws two fair dice. He wins Rs. 15 for throwing a doublet (same numbers on the two dice), wins Rs 12 when the throw results in the sum of 9 , and loses Rs. 6 for any other outcome on the throw. Then the expected gain/loss (in Rs.) of the person is: (1) 1 loss (2) 1 gain 2 2 (3) 2 gain (4) 1 loss 4

What This Question Tests

The problem asks for the expected gain/loss in a dice game, requiring the calculation of probabilities for specific outcomes (doublet, sum of 9, other) and then applying the expected value formula.

Concepts Tested

Calculating probabilities of events (rolling dice)Expected value formula for discrete random variables

Formulas Used

E(X) = Σx_i P(X=x_i)

Probability of events with two dice (doublet, sum of 9)

13.5 The Q value of a nuclear reaction A + b ® C + d is defined by Q = [ mA + mb – mC – md]c2 where the masses refer to the respective nuclei. Determine from the given data the Q-value of the following reactions and state whether the reactions are exothermic or endothermic.
