Explanation / Answer

As multiple questions are posted, only the first one will be answered.

a. P(Tulip is red) = 25 / 100 = 0.25

b. P(Tulip is purple) = 40/100 = 0.40

c. We cannot say for sure, that why correct option: B.

If 100 tulips are sampled, one would expect about (0.25*100 = 25) tulips to be red and about (0.4*100 = 40) tulips to be purple.
