1. Abigail plays a game in which she spins a spinner over and over again. The spinner has 4 equally sized sections labeled 1 through 4. Spinning a 2 eight times means the game is over.

Abigail uses a uniform probability model to predict the number of times the spinner will be spun before the number 2 appears 8 times.

What is Abigail's prediction for the number of total spins before the number 2 appears 8 times?


32 spins

16 spins

8 spins

4 spins

2. A computer is used to generate passwords made up of numbers 0 through 9 and uppercase letters. The computer generates 500 passwords one character at a time.

A uniform probability model is used to predict the first character in the password.

What is the prediction for the number of passwords in which the first character is a number?

Round your answer to the nearest whole number.


69 passwords

139 passwords

192 passwords

292 passwords

3. Samuel uses a uniform probability model for an experiment using a deck of 30 cards. There are 6 blue cards, 6 red cards, 6 green cards, 6 yellow cards, and 6 brown cards in the deck. Cards will be drawn one at a time and then replaced in the deck before another card is drawn.

He uses the probability model to determine the probability of drawing a yellow card or a blue card.

CAN'T ANSWER NUMBER 4 SORRY

THE PROBABILITIES OF THE INDIVIDUAL OUTCONES ARE THE SAME

Step-by-step explanation:

HOPE IT HELPS

Part 1: The option (A) is correct. The prediction of the event is 32 spins.

Part 2: Option (B) is correct. The probability of the event is 139 passwords.

Part 3: The P(yellow or blue) is 2/6.

Part 4: Option (B) is correct.

Part 5: Both options (A) and (C) are correct.

Probability means possibility. It is a branch of mathematics that deals with the occurrence of a random event. The value is expressed from zero to one.

Part 1:

The option (A) is correct. The prediction of the event is 32 spins.

For the given situation,

Number of segments the spinner has n = {1,2,3,4}

The event is the number of times the spinner will be spun before the number 2 appears 8 times

In one spin there are  four possibilities. So to get the number 2 appears  8 times it becomes [tex]4[/tex] × [tex]8[/tex] [tex]= 32[/tex]

Thus, the option (A) is correct. The prediction of the event is 32 spins.

Part 2:

Option (B) is correct. The probability of the event is 139 passwords.

For the given situation,

The password is generated by using numbers 0 through 9 and uppercase letters.

Numbers 0 to 9, total = 10 numbers

Uppercase letters = 26 letters

So, Total characters = [tex]10+26=36[/tex]

The event is the prediction for the number of passwords in which the first character is a number.

The probability of the event is given by [tex]\frac{10}{36}[/tex]

⇒[tex]0.27[/tex]

Total passwords generated = 500

The prediction for the number of passwords in which the first character is a number = [tex]0.27[/tex] × [tex]500[/tex]

⇒[tex]138.8[/tex] ≈ [tex]139[/tex]

Thus the probability of the event is 139 passwords. Option (B) is correct.

Part 3:

The P(yellow or blue) is 2/6.

For the given situation,

The deck has total number cards = 30 cards

Blue cards = 6 cards

Red cards = 6 cards

Yellow cards = 6 cards

Brown cards = 6 cards

The probability of drawing a yellow card or a blue card is

[tex]P(e)=P(yellow or blue)[/tex]

⇒[tex]P(e)= P(yellow) + P(blue)[/tex]

⇒[tex]P(e)= \frac{6}{30} + \frac{6}{30}[/tex]

⇒[tex]P(e)=\frac{12}{30}[/tex]

⇒[tex]P(e)= \frac{2}{6}[/tex]

Thus the P(yellow or blue) is 2/6.

Part 4:

From definition, Option (B) is correct.

For the given statements by definition,

UNIFORM probability is the probability model  of each outcome occurring is the same.

A NON- UNIFORM probability is the probability model of each outcome occurring is not the same.

Thus from definition, Option (B) is correct.

Part 5:

Both options (A) and (C) are correct.

For the given situation,

Total number of markers = 16

Red markers = 5

Blue markers = 6

Yellow markers = 5

The number of markers are different for different colors.

So the given situation models the non-uniform probability, and the

individual outcomes are not the same.

Thus both options (A) and (C) are correct.
