GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
(i)
All questions are compulsory.
(ii)
The question paper consists of 26 questions divided into three sections
A, B and C. Section A comprises of 6 questions of one mark each, Section
B comprises of 13 questions of 4 marks each and Section C comprises of
7 questions of six marks each.

4 questions of four marks each and 2 questions of six marks each. You
have to attempt only one of the alternatives in all such questions.
(iv)
Use of calculators is not permitted.

25. Assume that the chances of a patient having a heart attack is 40%.
Assuming that a meditation and yoga course reduces the risk of heart attack
by 30% and prescription of certain drug reduces its chance by 25%. At a
time, a patient can choose any one of the two options with equal
probabilities. It is given that after going through one of the two options, the
patient selected at random suffers a heart attack. Find the probability that
the patient followed a course of meditation and yoga. Interpret the result and
state which of the above stated methods is more beneficial for the patient.
26. If a young man rides his motorcycle at 25km/hr, he has to spend `2/km on
petrol, if he rides it at a faster speed of 40km/hr, the petrol cost increases to

distance he can travel within one hour. Express this as L.P.P. and solve it
graphically.
