Answer:

B. It's a fair method because each result is an equally likely possible outcome.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that there are total six students to be selected by the principle.

So, the principle chose to roll two dice numbered 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 for the respective students and choose the one whose number is most repeated.

As, the total possible outcomes for rolling of two dice are 36.

So, the probability to choose one student i.e. one number = \frac{1}{36}.

Thus, the selection of each student is given by the number \frac{1}{36}.

Hence, the principle chose a fair method as each result is an equally likely possible outcome.

Since there are 6 students out of which one needs to be selected, the principal chose two die on which there are six numbers each numbered from 1 , 2, 3, 4, 5, 6.

Since there are two dice, the total possible outcome is 36.

Hence, the probability of getting one number each is 1/36

Hence, the principal used a fair method because each result is an equally likely possible outcome.

Option B is correct.

Find

The heaviest 14% of fruits weigh more than how many grams?

Explanation

given

mean = 406 gms

standard deviation = 27 gms

using standard normal table ,

\begin{gathered} P(Z>z)=14\% \\ 1-P(Zso , [tex]\begin{gathered} x=z\times\sigma+\mu \\ x=1.08\times27+406 \\ x=435.16 \end{gathered}
