    can 0.2 be the probability of an outcome in a sample space?

    can 0.2 be the probability of an outcome in a sample space? Yes. Any probability p is a valid sample space outcome if: 0 <= p <= 1

    If the probability of an event occurring is 7%, what is the probability of an event not occurring?

    If the probability of an event occurring is 7%, what is the probability of an event not occurring? The probability of all event is 1, or 100%. If we treat the success of an event as p, then q is 1 - p. Using percentages, we have: q = 100% - p Given p = 7%, we have: q = 100% - 7% q = 93%

    flip 7 coins How many total outcomes are there

    flip 7 coins How many total outcomes are there A flip of a coin has 2 outcomes, heads or tails. Since each outcome is independent of the other outcomes, we multiply each flip by 2 outcomes: Total outcomes = 2 * 2 * 2 * 2 * 2 * 2 * 2 Total outcomes = 2^7 Total outcomes = 128

    Two dice are rolled. Enter the size of the set that corresponds to the event that both dice are odd. If dice 1 is odd, then we have the following face values: {1, 3, 5} If dice 2 is odd, then we have the following face values: {1, 3, 5} From this 2 dice odds face link, we see that the size of...

    Out of 53 teachers 36 drink tea 18 drink coffee, 10 drink neither. how many drink both? Let T be tea drinkers Let C be coffee drinkers Let (T & C) be Tea & Coffee drinkers. And 53 are total. So we use the Union formula relation: C U T = C + T - (C & T) 53 = 18 + 36 - (C & T) C & T = 53 - (Not...
