One million people have equal chances of being called by telephone from a broadcasting show. Determine the probability of one particular person receiving a call

Respuesta :

One of one million people.

Answer:

Prob =[tex]10^{-6}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that One million people have equal chances of being called by telephone from a broadcasting show

This implies that each person has an equal chance of being called.

We know that probability is the ratio of favourable events by total events and  also probability always lies between 0 and 1.

Hence here we have

Prob for one particular person receiving the call = [tex]\frac{1}{1,000,000} =10^{-6}[/tex]

We write in scientific notation since probability is very small

So answer is

[tex]10^{-6}[/tex]
