Ronda recorded the colors of the last 250 cars driving by her house in the table below. Using the data, what is the probability that’s the nexts car to drive by will be red or blue?
Question
Answer:
The sum of all cars will be = 70 + 30 + 50 + 80 + 20 = 250 So,
the probability that’s the nexts car to drive by will be red = (red cars)/(total cars)
= 50 / 250 = 0.2
the probability that’s the nexts car to drive by will be blue = (blue cars)/(total cars) = 70 / 250 = 0.28
then
the probability that’s the nexts car to drive by will be red or blue
= 0.2 + 0.28 = 0.48
