Answer: The correct answer is option C: Both events are equally likely to occur
Step-by-step explanation: For the first experiment, Corrine has a six-sided die, which means there is a total of six possible outcomes altogether. In her experiment, Corrine rolls a number greater than three. The number of events that satisfies this condition in her experiment are the numbers four, five and six (that is, 3 events). Hence the probability can be calculated as follows;
P(>3) = Number of required outcomes/Number of possible outcomes
P(>3) = 3/6
P(>3) = 1/2 or 0.5
Therefore the probability of rolling a number greater than three is 0.5 or 50%.
For the second experiment, Pablo notes heads on the first flip of a coin and then tails on the second flip. for a coin there are two outcomes in total, so the probability of the coin landing on a head is equal to the probability of the coin landing on a tail. Hence the probability can be calculated as follows;
P(Head) = Number of required outcomes/Number of all possible outcomes
P(Head) = 1/2
P(Head) = 0.5
Therefore the probability of landing on a head is 0.5 or 50%. (Note that the probability of landing on a tail is equally 0.5 or 50%)
From these results we can conclude that in both experiments , both events are equally likely to occur.

Let's say we wanted to subtract these measurements.
We can do the calculation exactly:
45.367 - 43.43 = 1.937
But let's take the idea that measurements were rounded to that last decimal place.
So 45.367 might be as small as 45.3665 or as large as 45.3675.
Similarly 43.43 might be as small as 43.425 or as large as 43.435.
So our difference may be as large as
45.3675 - 43.425 = 1.9425
or as small as
45.3665 - 43.435 = 1.9315
If we express our answer as 1.937 that means we're saying the true measurement is between 1.9365 and 1.9375. Since we determined our true measurement was between 1.9313 and 1.9425, the measurement with more digits overestimates the accuracy.
The usual rule is to when we add or subtract to express the result to the accuracy our least accurate measurement, here two decimal places.
We get 1.94 so an imputed range between 1.935 and 1.945. Our actual range doesn't exactly line up with this, so we're only approximating the error, but the approximate inaccuracy is maintained.
Multiply 240 by 5 to get 1200 miles then add the 40 from the first day so it took 5 days
