Also find the distance between the lines. In an examination, 10 questions of true-false type are asked. A student tosses a fair coin to determine his answer to each question. If the coin falls heads, he answers ‘true’ and if it falls tails, he answers ‘false’. Show that the probability that he answers at most seven questions correctly is 121/128. Why do you think that this is not the right way to take an exam ? What values should a student show towards examination ?

The postmaster of a local post office wishes to hire helpers during the Deepawali Season, because of large increase in the volume of mail handling & delivery. Because of the limited office space and , the budgetary conditions the number of temporary helpers must not exceed 10. According to past experience, a man can handle 300 letters and 80 packages per day, on the average & a woman can handle 400 letters and 50 packages per day. The post master believes that the daily volume of extra mails and packages will not be less than 3400 and 680 respectively. A man receives Rs. 150 a day, a woman receives Rs. 120 per day. How many men & women helpers should be hired to keep the pay roll at minimum cost ? What value should be purchased by the post master where he hires men & women who are doing the same work ?
