Which of the following scenarios is most likely to give the best approximation of the true probability of the event specified?

1 answer:

8 0

The most accurate and most likely probability is found by having a large, non-biased sample. The answer choice that shows this is D. Determine the ethnicity of 100 men (assumingly selected randomly) from a large city and determine the number who are Caucasian.

This answer choice showcases a large sample group, that was selected randomly from a large city. This would give you varied people to contribute to your study and give you an accurate representation of what the demographics of the city are.

I hope this helps! :)

Prisha rolls a fair number cube multiple times and records the result of each roll. Her results are shown in the table.

Leona [35]

Answer:

The experimental probability of rolling a 3 is greater than the theoretical probability of rolling a 3

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain the difference between the theoretical probability and

experimental probability

- Theoretical probability is what we expect to happen

- Experimental probability is what actually happens when we try it out

- Both of them calculated by the same way, the number of possible ways

an outcome can occur divided by the total

* Lets solve the problem

- The table has two column;

# Number Cube # Observed Frequency

1 18

2 16

3 24

4 26

5 16

6 20

Total 120

∵ The experimental probability of rolling a 3 = 24/120 = 1/5 = 0.2

∴ The experimental probability of rolling a 3 = 0.2 = 20%

∵ The theoretical probability of rolling a 3 = 1/6

∴ The theoretical probability of rolling a 3 = 0.1666 ≅ 17%

∵ 20% is greater than 17%

∴ The experimental probability of rolling a 3 is greater than the

theoretical probability of rolling a 3

We want to find a linear equation that models the given situation.

The solution is p = $0.0001*q - $23

The general linear equation is:

p = m*q + c

Where m is the slope and c is the y-intercept.

If we know that the line passes through two points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) then the slope can be written as:

$m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}$

Here we have the two points:

price = $9, boxes = 320,000

price = $8.50, boxes = 270,000

We can rewrite these as:

(320,000 , $9)

(270,000 , $8.50)

Then the slope of the line will be:

$m = \frac{\$ 9 - \$ 8.50}{320,000 - 270,000} = \$ 0.00001$

Then the line is something like:

p = $0.0001*q + c

To find the value of c we can use one of the two given points, I will use the first one, (320,000 , $9).

Replacing that in our equation we get:

$9 = $0.0001*320,000 + c

$9 - $0.0001*320,000 = c = -$23

Then the linear equation is:

p = $0.0001*q - $23
