The random numbers below represent 15 trials of a basketball simulation conducted using a spinner numbered 0–8. 76645, 46757, 28334, 81357, 52453, 21761, 51537, 62385, 62135, 16687, 41662, 27135, 45445, 33858, 86427 Let the number 1 represent a 3-point basket and the numbers 2–8 represent 2-point baskets. Based on the simulation, what is the probability that at least one of the next 5 baskets made by the team is a 3-pointer? A. 6/15 B. 8/15 C. 5/15 D. 7/15

Respuesta :

Answer:

7/15

Step-by-step explanation:

probability of one being a a 3-pointer is

1 2 3 4 5 6 7

7/15

Probability that at least one of the next 5 baskets made by the team is a 3- pointer is 7 / 15.

What is probability?

" Probability is a branch of mathematics which represents ratio of number of favourable outcomes to the total number of outcome of  any event."

Formula used

Probability =  [tex]\frac{Number of favourable outcomes}{Total number of outcomes}[/tex]

According to the question,

Random number represents 15 trials

Therefore,

Total number of outcomes = 15

At least one of the 5 team baskets made by the team is a 3- pointer

Sample space of favourable outcomes

                         =  { 81357, 21761, 51537, 62135, 16687, 41662, 27135}

Number of favourable outcome = 7

Required probability = 7 / 15

Hence, Option (D) is the correct answer.
