Answer 3

@Directrix

Answer 4

The OS site is acting the fool. I could not post and had to open up another browser.

Answer 5

yeah i know they are going to fix it , it also shows that you are online all the time

Answer 6

Do you see from the stacked bar graph that we have 2 red pieces with 4 holes?

I'm asking because I need affirmation that I am reading this graph correctly.

Answer 7

yes you are correct :)

Answer 8

What is the title of this stacked bar graph?

It should have one.

Answer 9

no sorry it doesnt have one

Answer 10

How many toy kits are in the graph? Is it just 4 kits or is it (9 + 8 + 12 + 6) kits?

I cannot tell the difference between kits and pieces on the graph.

Answer 11

yeah there are 36 total

Answer 12

>the graph shows the quantity of each piece in a toy building kit

I got 35 total pieces.

Answer 13

oh yeah you are right sorry 35

Answer 14

So, I'm thinking that the probability of the missing piece being a 4 hole red is

2/35. The bar graph should have a title, seriously.

Answer 15

lol im sorry it doesnt have a title xD

Answer 16

its title is the titleless graph

Answer 17

>yeah i know they are going to fix it

That was said 4 years ago. Still waiting.

Answer 18

>is it 22%?

How did you get the 22%? I am not saying that it is wrong.

Answer 19

I did 8/x=35/100

Answer 20

How did you get the 8? There are only 2 red-4 hole pieces.

But, then -- this missing piece. Is it not shown on the graph given that it is missing along with the title of the graph?

Answer 21

ok im just now realizing I messed up by a lot

Answer 22

so the answer would be 6 then?

Answer 23

No. It cannot be 6. Probability tops out at 1. Hold on.

Answer 24

alright

Answer 25

I cannot tell who is online and who is off.

Do you have an MC option that corresponds to 2/35? Because I do not know the name of the chart which would tell what it represents, I don't know what the deal is about the missing piece or how many toy kits are represented.

Answer 26

the bottom just says colors

Answer 27

and yes it would be 6% is the closest to 2/35

Answer 28

so which question do u need help with

Answer 29

im justasking if 6 is correct

Answer 30

@dan815 The question at the very top of this thread. Thanks.

Answer 31

6% is my best idea. 2/35 to the nearest integral percentage. @Daniellelovee

@dan815 cannot get OS to load. We need to start one of those FundMe online petitions to get OS overhauled from the bottom up.

Answer 32

alright thank you :)

Answer 33

My interpretations is ...

What is the probability that the missing piece is a red piece with 4 holes?

P(Red n 4holes)
