In a class of students the following data table summarizes how many students have a brother or a sister What is the probability that a student chosen randomly f class=

Respuesta :

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

total students = 27

students do not have a brother probability = 13/27

students do not have a sister probability = 12/27

= 4/9

Hope this is correct :)

The probability that a student is chosen randomly from the class does not have a sister is 0.375.

The probability that a student is chosen randomly from the class Has a brother is 0.208.

The probability that a student is chosen randomly from the class does not have a brother is 0.7916.

The probability that a student is chosen randomly from the class Has a sister is 0.625.

What is the probability?

Probability is the branch of mathematics, which discusses the occurrence of a random experiment.

First, we need to calculate how many total students there are.

Once we have the total we have to divide the number in the category that we want by the total number of students to calculate the probability of randomly getting a student in that category.

Total Students = 3 + 12 + 2 + 7 = 24 students

The probability that a student is chosen randomly from the class does not have a sister is;

[tex]= \dfrac{2+7}{24}\\\\=\dfrac{9}{24}\\\\=0.375[/tex]

The probability that a student is chosen randomly from the class Has a brother is;

[tex]= \dfrac{3+2}{24}\\\\=\dfrac{5}{24}\\\\= 0.208[/tex]

The probability that a student is chosen randomly from the class does not have a brother is;

[tex]= \dfrac{7+12}{24}\\\\=\dfrac{19}{24}\\\\= 0.7916[/tex]

The probability that a student is chosen randomly from the class Has a sister is;

[tex]= \dfrac{3+12}{24}\\\\=\dfrac{15}{24}\\\\= 0.625[/tex]
