equally likely events

Hello students,Previously we have discussed about inverse function worksheet and In today's session we are going to discuss about equally likely events which is a part of board of intermediate education andhra pradesh, In the mathematics we deals with the probability and their events such as exhaustive, dependent, independent, mutually exclusive, favorable and many more. Equally likely events are one of them. Let’s talk about the equally likely events definition : - In some experiments we know the results in advance but actually do not know the exact result, this type of results are called the random experiments and the result of random experiments are called equally likely events if the different outcomes have the same chance of occurrence.
For example when a die is thrown, each of the faces bearing one, two, three, four, five or six dots is equally like to appear.
Another example when we toss a coin then we have a chance to get either a Head or Tail.
Means it includes all those experiments in which we know the all results but we do not know the actual or exact results.
Let’s take examples -
Which of the following experiments have equally likely outcomes or events.
I) A driver attempts to start a car. The car start or does not start.
II) A players attempts to shot a basketball. she/he shoots or misses the shot.
III) A trial is made to answer a true false question. The answer is right or wrong.
IV) A baby is born. It is a boy or girl
Solutions : - (I) A driver attempts to start a car. The car starts or does not start, is not equally like events.
(II) A players attempts to shot a basketball. she/he shoots or misses the shot are not equally like events.
(III) A trial is made to answer a true false question. The answer is right or wrong is an equally like to occur.
(IV) A baby is born. It is a boy or girl is an equally like occur event.

Mathematical Reasoning

Previously we have discussed about difference between rational and irrational numbers and In today's session we are going to discuss about Mathematical Reasoning which is a part of ap secondary education board, Mathematical reasoning explained by solving the problem without knowing that what is to be done but when you know how to solve the problem then it is not consider as mathematical reasoning .For the question about what is mathematical reasoning the answer is that collection of the problems that are not in routine life and they are not solved by using any normal procedure and these problems are solved by making own strategies and by making own methods , also these are not based on the single strategy but based on the variety of strategies are known as the mathematical
There are some mathematical reasoning examples to understand the way of solving the problems of mathematical reasoning: Example: If Jon have 23 chocolates and he put equal number of chocolates in two bags and after putting seven chocolates are left then how many chocolates he put into each bag? The problems will need only little bit of attention to solve are considered as mathematical reasoning problems.
These types of problems are helping the students to make their mathematical concept strong as well as they helps the student to save their extra time that is spend in problem solving as for example If we want to multiple the number 36 * 18 then it will solved in more easy way as add 4 to 36 that is equal to 40 (36 + 4) and add 2 in 18 to make it 20 as (18 + 2) and multiply them that is much easier then multiply 36 * 18 and answer for multiplication 40 * 20 = 800 and subtract 4 and 2 that is totally 6 from 800 that is 794 that is the actual answer for multiplication of 36 * 18 .
