Answer:

D: 2/7

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of an event x is how likely the event will occur. It is given as;

P(x) = number of expected outcomes / number of possible outcomes

Given:

Event A = The place is a city.

Therefore,

P(A) is the probability that the event A happens. i.e the probability that a place is a city.

P([tex]A^c[/tex]) is the probability that the event A does not happen. i.e the probability that a place is not a city

Also,

The sum of the probability that an event happens and the probability that the event does not happen is equal to 1. i.e

P(A) + P([tex]A^c[/tex]) = 1

From the table,

P([tex]A^c[/tex]) is found by counting the number of places that does not have a tick on the "is a city" column, then divide the result by the total number of places. i.e

P([tex]A^c[/tex]) = 2 ÷ 7

P([tex]A^c[/tex]) = 2/7

Therefore P([tex]A^c[/tex]) which is the probability that the place is not a city is 2/7
