\n(a) Box I contains two white and three black balls. Box II contains four white and one black balls and box III contains three white and four black balls. A dice having three red, two yellow and one green face, is thrown to select the box. If red face turns up, we pick up the box I, if a yellow face turns up we pick up box II, otherwise, we pick up box III. Then we draw a ball from the selected box. If the ball drawn is white, what is the probability that the dice had turned up with a red face? [5]

\n(a) Mr Nirav borrowed \u20b9 50,000 from the bank for 5 years. The rate of interest is 9% per annum compounded monthly. Find the payment he makes monthly if he pays back at the beginning of each month. [5]
\n(b) A dietician wishes to mix two kinds of food X and Y in such a way that the mixture contains at least 10 units of vitamin A, 12units of vitamin Band 8 units of vitamin C. The vitamin contents of one kg food is given below:
\n
\nOne kg of food X costs \u20b9 24 and one kg of food Y costs \u20b9 36. Using Linear Programming, find the least cost of the total mixture which will contain the required vitamins. [5]
\nSolution:
\n(a) Nirav borrowed amount V = \u20b9 50000
\nInterest (i) = 9% per annum = \\(\\frac { 9 }{ 12 }\\) per month
\nNumber of months = 60
\nNow,
\n
\n(b) Let x kg of food X and y kg of food Y be mixed in the desired diet.
\nTherefore, the linear programming problem is to minimize Z = 24x + 36y subject to the constraints:
\nx + 2y \u2265 10
\n2x + 2y \u2265 12
\n3x + y \u2265 8
\nare drawn with x = 0 as the y – axis and y = 0 as the x-axis.
\nThus, the lines PQ : x + 2y = 10, RS: x + y = 6 and TU : 3x + y = 8
\nNow, PQ and RS meet at V (2, 4), RS and TU meet at X (1, 5).
\nThe shaded region in the graph on the right side is the feasible region.
\nThe value of Z = 24x + 36y at PVXU respectively
\n(i) At P (10, 0), Zp<\/sub> = 24 \u00d7 10 + 136 \u00d7 0 = 240
\n(ii) At V (2, 4), Zv<\/sub> = 24 \u00d7 2 + 36 \u00d7 4 = 192
\n(iii) At X (1, 5), Zx<\/sub> = 24 \u00d7 1 + 36 \u00d7 5 = 204
\n(iv) At U(0, 8), Zu<\/sub> = 24 \u00d7 0 + 36 \u00d7 8 = 288
\nFrom these values Zv<\/sub> is the minimum value.
\n2 kg of food X and 4 kg of food Y are needed for required diet.
