Rachel found that 20 out of 48 cars that entered a parking lot were red. What is the experimental probability that the next car that comes in is red? What is the experimental probability that the next car that comes in is not red?

Respuesta :

In the observation of Rachel the experimental probability of the next car which comes in is red is 5/12 and the experimental probability of the next car which comes in is not red is 7/12.

What is experimental probability?

Experimental probability of an event is the ratio of number of favorable outcome which appeared while conducting an event to the total number of outcome of that event is occurred.

Rachel found that 20 out of 48 cars that entered a parking lot were red. In this observation, the probability of a car to be red is,

[tex]P=\dfrac{20}{48}\\P=\dfrac{5}{12}[/tex]

Thus, the experimental probability that the next car that comes in is red is 5/12.

The experimental probability that the next car that comes in is not red is,

[tex]P^{-1}=1-\dfrac{5}{12}\\P^{-1}=\dfrac{12-5}{12}\\P^{-1}=\dfrac{7}{12}[/tex]

Hence, In the observation of Rachel, the experimental probability of the next car which comes in is red is 5/12 and the experimental probability of the next car which comes in is not red is 7/12.
