Answer 2

i think it would be B

Answer 3

Y u think it is B

Answer 4

i calculate and got 26.33%

Answer 5

OK i did the same thing and got the same thing

Answer 6

@Euler271 please read the question carefully.

Answer 7

Thanks guys. how did you do that though?

Answer 8

Also, can you see if i got this right?

blood type - O A B AB
probability - 0.5 ? 0.2 0.05

using the table of probabilities above, the probability that the person chosen has blood type A is
a)0.05
b)0.25 *
c)0.27
d)0.40
d)0.65

Answer 9

umm on the other problem i SOME HOW GOT SOMETHING DIFFERENT i GOT 16.8 WHICK IF U SIMPLIED IT ITS 17

Answer 10

@Cpt.Sparz @FlvsGirl you guys think you would help with this?

Answer 11

Honesly dont know this one

Answer 12

probability of total outcomes is 1.
which means
( probability of blood type O + probability of blood type A + probability of blood typeB+probability of blood type AB)=1
so
0.5 + probability of blood type A + 0.2 + 0.05=1
so probability of blood type A= 1-0.5-0.2-0.05=0.25

Answer 13

Awesome! that is basically what i did. Just seemed a little less complicated when i did it.. lol can you help with some stupid marble probability problem that i can't seem to figure out for some reason?

Answer 14

and @Eagle76 i got 17% too hwen i did it, but i didn't get the same initial number as you.. :/
