A spinner with four sections is spun 30 times.ColorNumber of timesRed7Yellow8Blue6Green99Based on these results, what is the experimental probability that the next timethe spinner is spun, it lands on yellow?.O A.ОВ.B. Zo30O c.15D. LE310

Answer 1

The experimental probability of an event can be found through:

`p(x)=\frac{specific\text{ }cases\text{ }}{possible\text{ }cases}`

in this case, the possible cases are the number of spins that are made until the moment which is 30.

the specific cases refer to the probability we want to find, which in this case refers to landing in yellow next time, for that matter we know that until the spinner has landed in yellow 8 times.

then,

`p(x)=(8)/(30)`

simplify the fraction

`p(x)=(4)/(15)`

Answer:

The experimental probability that the next time the spinner will land on yellow is 4/15.
