1. The probability that we select a red marble is 1/3.

We found this out by taking the amount of red marbles there are and the total amount of marbles. The total amount of marbles is 18 and there are red marbles. So, it would become 6 out of 18 or 6/18. Then, we simplify 6/18 to the simplest form. The greatest common factor of both of those numbers is 6. Lastly, we divide each of them by 6 to get the simplest form.

6/18 = (6/6)/(18/6)

(6/6)/(18/6) = 1/3

So, therefore, the theoretical probability of picking a red marble is 1/3.

2. The probability that we select a blue marble is 2/3.

We can find this out by taking the amount of blue marbles there are and the total amount of marbles. We know that the total amount of marble is 18 and there are 12 blue marbles. So, we simply get the GCF (greatest common factor) and divide them by it.

Greatest Common Factor of 12 and 18 = 6

12/18 = (12/6)/(18/6)

(12/6)/(18/6) = 2/3

Thus, the theoretical probability of picking a blue marble is 2/3.

4d. Health Survey. In a survey of 1020 adults in the United States, 44% said that they wash their hands after riding public tran
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

Discrete. See explanation below

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to remember some previous concepts:

We have two types of numerical data: Discrete and Continuous

When we say Discrete data we are refering to data that is countable or can be expressed with integers in a domain.

In the other case when we talk about continuous data we are refering to data that is continuous in a specified domain, it can contain decimals or rational numbers in the Real numbers for example.

For this special case we know that they select a sample size of n=1020 and the sample proportion of people in the United States who wash their hands after riding public transportation was 0.44 or 44% in percentage.

\hat p = \frac{X}{1020}=0.44

X=0.44*1020=448.8 \approx 449

But the number of subjects on this survey needs to be Discrete, since the possible values are 0,1,2,3,4,.....,n and never we have decimals or continuous data in order to express this.
