A few friends are enjoying their sea voyage in a boat full of apples. On the way, they felt hungry and thus decided to eat the apples. Together, they ate two dozen of apples. When they have eaten the apples, will there be any change in the water level?
You are playing a probability game with your friend using a fair coin. Both of you decide on a particular sequence that you have to achieve.
Let us suppose you chose the sequence to be: H T H
Your friend chose the sequence to be: H T T
Now you keep tossing coins until you get the sequence and the same is done by your friend. You keep doing that till you achieve your predefined sequence and keep writing the result on paper. At the end of the game the player whose average number of tosses will be lowest, he will win.
The results of the game 1 toss:
You: H T T H T H
Your score: 6
Your friend: H T H H H T H H T T
Your friends' score: 10
The results of the game 2 toss:
You: T T H T T H H T H
Your score: 9
Your friend: T T H H T H T T
Your friends' score: 8
The results of the game 3 toss:
You: T T H H T H
Your score: 6
Your friend: H H T H T T
Your friends' score: 6
Now after 3 games, your average score is 7 and your friend's average score is 8. Now assume that you keep playing the game and play many times. What will be the possible outcome of the following?
In a competitive exam, each correct answer could win you 10 points and each wrong answer could lose you 5 points. You sat in the exam and answered all the 20 questions, which were given in the exam.
When you checked the result, you scored 125 marks on the test.
Can you calculate how many answers given by you were wrong?
