If P(A)=0.4 and P(B)=0.3 and events are mutually exclusive what is P(A or B)?

  • A 0.12
  • B 0.58
  • C 0.70
  • D 0.82
Permalink
Correct Answer: Option C — 0.70
Explanation: For mutually exclusive events P(A or B) = P(A)+P(B) = 0.4+0.3 = 0.7. Mutually exclusive events cannot occur simultaneously. The addition rule for mutually exclusive events simply adds probabilities. For non-mutually exclusive events we must subtract P(A and B) to avoid double counting.

What is the value of log base 10 of 1000?

  • A 2
  • B 3
  • C 4
  • D 5
Permalink
Correct Answer: Option B — 3
Explanation: 3! = 3 × 2 × 1 = 6. Factorial of n is the product of all positive integers from 1 to n. Factorials are fundamental in permutations combinations probability calculations and the binomial theorem. Key values to memorize include 0!=1 1!=1 2!=2 3!=6 4!=24 5!=120 and 6!=720 for fast competitive exam solutions.

Simplify: (a² - b²) divided by (a - b)

  • A a + b
  • B a - b
  • C a² + b²
  • D ab
Permalink
Correct Answer: Option A — a + b
Explanation: a² - b² factors as (a+b)(a-b) using the difference of squares identity. Dividing by (a-b) cancels that factor leaving (a+b). Recognizing algebraic identities including difference of squares perfect square trinomials and sum or difference of cubes is essential for quickly simplifying expressions in competitive exam algebra sections.

What is the expansion of (a + b)²?

  • A a² + b²
  • B a² - b²
  • C a² + 2ab + b²
  • D a² - 2ab + b²
Permalink
Correct Answer: Option C — a² + 2ab + b²
Explanation: (a+b)² = a² + 2ab + b². This is one of the most fundamental algebraic identities alongside (a-b)² = a²-2ab+b² and (a+b)(a-b) = a²-b². These three identities are the foundation of algebra and appear constantly in competitive exam questions. Memorizing and recognizing them is essential for quick problem solving.
