Which statement best describes the use of a simulation to predict the probability that two randomly chosen people will both have
their birthdays on a Monday? Randomly generate an integer from 1 to 2 seven times, and the probability is 1/(2) (7)
Randomly generate an integer from 1 to 2 seven times, and the probability is 1/2^7
Randomly generate an integer from 1 to 7 two times, and the probability is 1/(2) (7)
Randomly generate an integer from 1 to 7 two times, and the probability is 1/7 ^2
<span>Randomly generate an integer from 1 to 7 two times, and the probability is 1/7 ^2
This is the </span><span>statement that best describes the use of a simulation to predict the probability that two randomly chosen people will both have their birthdays on a Monday.
There are 7 days in a week, so there are 7 choices but only 1 Monday. So, 1/7 is the probability that a person's birthday falls on a Monday.
1st person asked will have 1/7 probability. 2nd person asked will also have 1/7 probability
So, (1/7)</span>² is the probability that both persons will have their birthdays on a Monday.
We are asked to determine how many miles are 140 km. To do that we use the quotient of the conversion factor where the unit we want to convert to is in the numerator and the given unit in the denominator. Since we want to find miles we use the following quotient:
