Can you guys help me with this?!?!?!
What do you need help with? :)
Staci works at an apple orchard during the fall. On average, 70% of the apples sold are green and 30% are red. Use the following random number table to predict the probability that the next three apples sold will be green. Let the digits 0-6 represent a green apple and the digits 7-9 represent a red apple. a. Based on your experiment, what is the probability that the next 3 apples sold will be green? Random numbers 91037 84668 56950 17392 b. How many trials did you perform? What will most likely happen if you perform more trials?
Math question @Aureyliant
This website can show you the table
I apologize but I'm not sure as to what the answer is and I don't want to mislead you with potential false information... @jabez177 might be able to help you though
@zepdrix @Luigi0210 @Compassionate PLEASE HELP?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
@jabez177 pLEASE HELP?!?!?!?!?!?!
Ouch... I just got up... Sorry, I can't exactly help at the moment... @CausticSyndicalist @Elsa213 @HeyWassup345 @jim_thompson5910
tHANKS Anyways @jabez177

The probability of an apple being green is like flipping a coin. But rather than 50/50 we have 70/30 with 70% chance of it being green and 30% it being red. We assume independence from one apple draw to the next. So probability of three greens in a row is just $$ 0.7\times 0.7\times 0.7 $$ Does this make sense?
Yeah, but can you elaborate a little more for more clarity please?
Using the random data we have, assuming 0-6 = green and 7-9 = red The ratio of green to total is 91037 rgggr = 3/5 84668 rgggr = 3/5 56950 ggrgg = 4/5 17392 grgrg = 3/5 So the probability of green from experiment is about $$ \cfrac{3+3+4+3}{5+5+5+5}=\cfrac{13}{20}=0.65 $$ This is pretty close to 0.7. As you do more experiments, we'd expect a number closer to 0.70. Does this make sense?
Thank you SSSOOOOOO much!!
