Using a number cube and this hat with 5 different-colored marbles, which simulation would help you answer this question? During

the first 70 days of school, Becca’s science class does a lab experiment 2/3 of the time. The class meets Monday through Friday. If you choose a class at random, what are the chances that Becca did a lab experiment on a Friday?

Answer:

  see the attachment

Step-by-step explanation:

We assume that the question is interested in the probability that a randomly chosen class is a Friday class with a lab experiment (2/15). That is somewhat different from the probability that a lab experiment is conducted on a Friday (2/3).

Based on our assumption, we want to create a simulation that includes a 1/5 chance of the day being a Friday, along with a 2/3 chance that the class has a lab experiment on whatever day it is.

That simulation can consist of choosing 1 of 5 differently-colored marbles, and rolling a 6-sided die with 2/3 of the numbers being designated as representing a lab-experiment day. (The marble must be replaced and the marbles stirred for the next trial.) For our purpose, we can designate the yellow marble as "Friday", and numbers greater than 2 as "lab-experiment".

The simulation of 70 different choices of a random class is shown in the attachment.

<em>Comment on the question</em>

IMO, the use of <em>70 trials</em> is coincidentally the same number as the first <em>70 days</em> of school. The calendar is deterministic, so there will be exactly 14 Fridays in that period. If, in 70 draws, you get 16 yellow marbles, you cannot say, "the probability of a Friday is 16/70." You need to be very careful to properly state the question you're trying to answer.
