We know that there are 33 students in all, and 12 boys. Do you know the answer now?
OpenStudy (michele_laino):
possible outcomes= 21+12=...
favorable outcomes= 12
OpenStudy (anonymous):
b?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
no
OpenStudy (anonymous):
let's think about it

OpenStudy (anonymous):
the denominator of you probability would be 33 since there are 33 people in all
OpenStudy (michele_laino):
no, I'm sorry
the definition is:
probability= favorable outcomes/ possible outcomes
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok
OpenStudy (anonymous):
d?
OpenStudy (michele_laino):
21 is the number of girls

OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok so then C?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
remember that I told you denominator of your probability would be 33
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes, C is correct
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yay!
OpenStudy (michele_laino):
yes! it is option C

The probability that an event will occur is 100%. Which of these best describes the likelihood of the event occurring?
Likely
Certain
Unlikely
Impossible
imqwerty (imqwerty):
total boys = 12
total girls=21
total children =12+21 =33
probability(a boy name is drawn) =total number of favourable events/total no. of events P=12/33 :)

@Michele_Laino
imqwerty (imqwerty):
sure event has probability = 1
likely event has probability>=0.5
unliky event has probability<0.5
impossible events have probability=0
so which one is the event given in the question ??
OpenStudy (anonymous):
um, unlikely?
OpenStudy (michele_laino):
and 2/3 is greater than 0.5

2/3=??
OpenStudy (anonymous):
c?
imqwerty (imqwerty):
2/3=0.6666....
so which category does it fall into??
OpenStudy (anonymous):
likely
OpenStudy (anonymous):

)A spinner is divided into sections of equal size, of which some are red, some are blue, and the remaining are green. The probability of the arrow landing on a section colored red is 50%. The probability of the arrow landing on a section colored blue is 10%. What is the probability of the arrow landing on a section colored green?
10%
40%
50%
60%
OpenStudy (michele_laino):
the sum of all probabilities has to be equal to 100%

A bag contains 50 marbles, 10 of which are blue, 8 are red, 20 are green, and 12 are purple. Marcie takes a marble out of the bag, records the color, and returns it to the bag. How many red marbles should she expect after 500 trials?
80
100
120
200
OpenStudy (anonymous):
120?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
@Michele_Laino
OpenStudy (michele_laino):
the probability to get a red marble is 8/50
OpenStudy (michele_laino):
so the favorable outcomes are, probability times possible outcomes:
\[\Large \frac{8}{{50}} \cdot 500 = ...?\]
