Question

A random number from 1 to 5 is selected

Answer 1

Answer:

Relative frequency of selecting a 2 = 8/50 = 0.16

Relative frequency of selecting a 3 = 14/50 = 0.28

Step-by-step explanation:

When we have a given experiment with given outcomes (such that each time that we perform the experiment, one outcome happens) the relative frequency of a given outcome is the quotient between the number of times that that outcome happened, and the total number of times that the experiment was performed.

Here the experiment is selecting a random number between 1 and 5, and it is performed 50 times.

Out of these 50 times, the outcome "2" appears 8 times.

Then the relative frequency of selecting the number 2 is:

f(2) = 8/50 = 0.16

And of these 50 experiments, the outcome "3" appears 14 times.

Then the relative frequency of selecting the number 3 is:

f(3) = 14/50  = 0.28
