Respuesta :

The probability that a randomly selected student either does sports or works is 0.25.

What is probability?

The chance of happening an event out of all the possible outcomes is called the probability of an event.

The two-way table describes student's after school activities.

The probability of sport or work is represented as

P(sports U work) = number of students in sports or drama / total number of students

Substitute the values, we get

P (sports U work) = 7+13+5/(20+20+25+7+13+5+3+2+5)

P (sports U work)  = 25/100

P (sports U work) =0.25

Therefore, the probability that a randomly selected student either does sports or works is 0.25.

Answer:

  75%

Explanation:

The probability of interest is the ratio of the total of students doing sports or work to the total number of students.

Sports or Work

The column totals are ...

  [tex]\begin{tabular}{|c|c|c|}\cline{1-3}Sports&Drama&Work\\\cline{1-3}65&25&10\\\cline{1-3}\end{tabular}[/tex]

Then the number of students doing Sports or Work is 65+10 = 75.

Probability

If a student is picked randomly from those described by the table, the probability of that student doing Sports or Work is the ratio of those choosing those activities to the total number of students.

The total number of students is ...

  65 +25 +10 = 100

The ratio of those doing Sports or Work to the total is ...

  75/100 = 0.75 = P(sports or work) = 75%
