Q. The variable x takes a value between 0 and 10 with uniform probability distribution. The variable y takes a value between 0 and 20 with uniform probability distribution. The probability of the sum of variables (x + y) being greater than 20 is

Ans: 0.25

Sol:

Given that

0 ≤ x ≤ 10

0 ≤ y ≤ 20

p {x + y ≥ 20} = ?

Required probability = Area of right angled triangle ABC/Area of rectangular region OABD
