Problem 1
Answer: Closer to 1
Explanation:
There are 20 gumballs total. Half of this is 20/2 = 10 gumballs. If there's more than 10 of one color, then the probability of getting that color is closer to 1, than it is to 0. Here we have 12 pink which is greater than 10, so that's why the answer is closer to 1.
================================================
Problem 2
Answer: Closer to 0
Explanation:
The amount of green (3) is less than 10, so that's why the probability is closer to 0 than it is to 1. We can see that 3/20 = 0.15 is less than 0.50
================================================
Problem 3
Answer: Closer to 0
Explanation:
We have a similar situation compared to problem 2. This time we have 5/20 = 0.25 which is less than 0.50
================================================
Problem 4
Answer: 48% chance; fairly likely
Explanation:
We have 12 green out of 25 total, so the probability of choosing green is 12/25 = 0.48 = 48%. While this probability is not over 50%, I still say it's fairly likely considering the other colors lead to smaller probabilities. For instance, purple has a chance of 6/25 = 0.24 = 24% and orange has a probability of 2/25 = 0.04 = 4%, both of which are smaller than 48%
Answer:
the answer is c
Step-by-step explanation:
The score of 96 is 2 standard deviations above the mean score. Using the empirical rule for a normal distribution, the probability of a score above 96 is 0.0235.
Therefore the number of students scoring above 96 is given by:
On each of the six days Coco ate a square piece of chocolate with side length 15 cm, 15 cm, 9 cm, 6 cm, 3 cm and 3 cm, respectively. Since we know the originally chocolate bar was a rectangle the 6 squares must fit together as shown. The length of the longer side of the original chocolate bar, then, was 15 + 15 + 9 =39<span> cm</span>
