Which probability tool would not be an appropriate choice for a simulation that models an action that has four possible outcomes? a standard die a standard deck of cards a random number generator a spinner with equal sections labeled A, B, C, D

a standard die
I believe the answer is A. A standard die because it is six sided, and 6/4 is not a perfect division.
thx i have 1 moew can i have some help on it?
Sure. Whats the question?
A clothing store owner is experimenting with the layout of a clothing rack on the floor. One day, she kept track of the number of customers in the store who visited the rack of new clothing items. She found that sixty-two percent of her customers looked through that rack. The next day, she moved the rack of new items to a different location on the floor. Here's what she found: Total customers: seventy-five Number of customers looking at new items: sixty How did the movement of the rack affect the number of customers looking at the new items? It decreased by 2 percent It decreased by 8 percent It increased by thirteen percent It increased by eighteen percent
I think its D. It increased by eighteen percent.
Its D.
thx
Medal?
Your welcome. Is there anything else?
but i cant give both
yea squidgy
Kalil flipped a coin sixty times. He got thirty-four heads. How does this result compare to the number of heads you would have expected based on theoretical probability? It's less than expected. It's greater than expected. It's the same as expected. There is no expected value.
Okay give me a second.

The answer is D. There is no way to tell if you are going to get heads or tails. But you can guess which that would be 50/50 either right or wrong.
Is that is?
oh u get it i have2 more?
Okay what are the other questions?
Which number of trials would best satisfy the need for a simulation to be something you could possibly do and provide meaningful data? 3 5 thirty-five three hundred fifty
I believe its C. 35.
Which is the name given to a favorable outcome in an experiment? attempt probability tool success trial
I think its A. attempt.
Any more?
Shelly delivers the weekly local paper to neighborhoods in her town. House numbers are even on one side of the street and odd on the other. Shelly delivers an equal number of papers to both sides of the street. Although she always aims for the front doorstep, Shelly typically misses on three of the tosses on her route each week. Design and conduct a simulation to estimate the probability that next week, Shelly's three misses will all be at odd-numbered houses. Hint: You can set up the experiment using 3 coins to collect the data. Allow one side of the coin to represent Heads (evens) and one other side to represent Tails (odds). a) Explain clearly your design of the simulation, including choice of probability tool and description of a single trial. b) Conduct the simulation with twenty trials and record the results. c) Calculate the experimental probability that all 3 of Shelly's missed papers will be at odd-numbered houses.
I cant seem to figure this one out. Give me a few so I can try to figure it out.
