Question

An ice cream shop offers a discount price on a small ice cream cone-the price is obtained by rolling two dice and then taking the larger number followed by the smaller number to be the price (in cents). So, rolling a 3 and a 2 or a 2 and a 3 would result in a price of 32 cents. If I visit the ice cream shop with only 50 cents in my pocket, the probability that the ice cream cone costs no more than 50 cents is 49, which is about 0.444. How would you interpret this probability? (Circle all that apply.) Which of the following numbers cannot represent a probability? Circle all that apply A. 0.01 D. 88% B. -0.50 C. 1.05 E. 107% Explain in your own words what it means to say, "the probability of..." for each statement below Be clear about describing the random process that is repeated over and over again. Do not include the words "probability," “chance," “odds," or “likelihood" or any other synonyms of "probability." a. The probability of getting a red M&M; candy is 0.20 b. The probability of winning at a “daily number" lottery game is 1/ 1000 c. The probability of rain tomorrow is 0.30 P. 3.7 Suppose that a birth is equally likely to be a boy or girl, and the outcome of one birth does not change this probability for future births a. Describe how you could use a coin to approximate the probability that a couple with four children would have two boys and two girls b.
