$A$ bag contains $19$ red balls and $19$ black balls. Two balls are chosen at a time repeatedly and discarded if they are of the same colour,but if they are different,the black ball is discarded and the red ball is returned to the bag. The probability that this process will terminate with one red ball is

Consider the $6 \times 6$ square grid in the figure. Let $A_1, A_2, \ldots, A_{49}$ be the points of intersection (dots in the picture) in some order. We say that $A_i$ and $A_j$ are friends if they are adjacent along a row or along a column. Assume that each point $A_i$ has an equal chance of being chosen.
$(1)$ Let $p_i$ be the probability that a randomly chosen point has $i$ many friends,$i=0, 1, 2, 3, 4$. Let $X$ be a random variable such that for $i=0, 1, 2, 3, 4$,the probability $P(X=i)=p_i$. Then the value of $7 E(X)$ is
$(2)$ Two distinct points are chosen randomly out of the points $A_1, A_2, \ldots, A_{49}$. Let $p$ be the probability that they are friends. Then the value of $7 p$ is

An urn $A$ contains $4$ white and $1$ black ball; urn $B$ contains $3$ white and $2$ black balls and urn $C$ contains $2$ white and $3$ black balls. One ball is transferred randomly from $A$ to $B$; later one ball is transferred randomly from $B$ to $C$. Finally,if a ball is drawn randomly from $C$,then the probability that it is a black ball is

$A$ and $B$ are two independent events such that $P(A \cup B) = 0.8$ and $P(A) = 0.3$. The value of $P(B)$ is:

If $10$ different balls are to be placed in $4$ distinct boxes at random,then the probability that two of these boxes contain exactly $2$ and $3$ balls is
