Answer:
1.60% probability that a randomly selected passenger car crash DOES result in a rollover
Step-by-step explanation:
A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.
Desired outcomes:
83,600 U.S. passenger cars rolled over when they crashed, so [tex]D = 83600[/tex]
Total outcomes:
83,600 U.S. passenger cars rolled over when they crashed and 5,127,400 passenger cars did not roll over when they crashed. So [tex]T = 83600 + 5127400 = 5211000[/tex]
What is the probability that a randomly selected passenger car crash DOES result in a rollover
[tex]p = \frac{D}{T} = \frac{83600}{5211000} = 0.0160[/tex]
1.60% probability that a randomly selected passenger car crash DOES result in a rollover
