It is like a ratio: the specific number of something over the total of everything. Say you have twenty colors, divided into red, purple, yellow, and green. There are five of each. The likelihood of picking red from all twenty is 4:16. It is the same for the rest. The number of something specific compared the to the total. If there is an uneven amount of something like four and six out of ten, the odds are different and there is a better chance that the six will be over the four.

The odds against each other in the picture is 5:15 because they are basically competing to be picked. The second number wouldn't be twenty because you aren't looking for the total but the likelihood something will be picked over another.

It has been a long time since I have done odds so be sure to ask about it.

The course grade in a statistics class is the average of the scores on five examinations. Suppose that a student's scores on the
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

84 is the highest possible course average

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of examinations = 5

Average = sum of scores in each examination/total number of examinations

Let the score for the last examination be x.

Average = (66+78+94+83+x)/5 = y

5y = 321+x

x = 5y -321

If y = 6, x = 5×6 -321 =-291.the student cannot score -291

If y = 80, x = 5×80 -321 =79.he can still score higher

If If y = 84, x = 5×84 -321 =99.This would be the highest possible course average after the last examination.

If y= 100

The average cannot be 100 as student cannot score 179(maximum score is 100)
