Let $${U_1}$$ and $${U_2}$$ be two urns such that $${U_1}$$ contains $$3$$ white and $$2$$ red balls, and $${U_2}$$ contains only $$1$$ white ball. A fair coin is tossed. If head appears then $$1$$ ball is drawn at random from $${U_1}$$ and put into $${U_2}$$. However, if tail appears then $$2$$ balls are drawn at random from $${U_1}$$ and put into $${U_2}$$. Now $$1$$ ball is drawn at random from $${U_2}$$ being white is

Given that the drawn ball from $${U_2}$$ is white, the probability that head appeared on the coin is

$${{17} \over {23}}$$

$${{11} \over {23}}$$

$${{15} \over {23}}$$

$${{12} \over {23}}$$

Let $$\omega $$ be a complex cube root of unity with $$\omega \ne 1.$$ A fair die is thrown three times. If $${r_1},$$ $${r_2}$$ and $${r_3}$$ are the numbers obtained on the die, then the probability that $${\omega ^{{r_1}}} + {\omega ^{{r_2}}} + {\omega ^{{r_3}}} = 0$$ is

$${1 \over 18}$$

$${1 \over 9}$$

$${2 \over 9}$$

$${1 \over 36}$$

A signal which can be green or red with probability $${4 \over 5}$$ and $${1 \over 5}$$ respectively, is received by station A and then transmitted to station $$B$$. The probability of each station receving the signal correctly is $${3 \over 4}$$. If the signal received at atation $$B$$ is green, then the probability that the original signal was green is

$${3 \over 5}$$

$${6 \over 7}$$

$${20 \over 23}$$

$${9 \over 20}$$
