The manager of a video game store found that 35 of the 140 people who preordered the latest baseball game canceled their orders the day before the game was released. He used that data to create a simulation to predict the probability that future customers will cancel their preorders.

Answer: I believe this is unfinished. The rest of the question is:

According to the manager’s model, what is the probability that two customers who preorder the newest golf game will both cancel their orders the day before the game is released?

O 1/16

O 1/8

O 1/4

O 1/2

The answer to this question is 1/16.

Step-by-step explanation: Take the people that canceled their orders over the total number of people that ordered to get 35/140, which simplifies to 1/4. This problem is an independent event, so take 1/4 and multiply it by itself (1/4 times 1/4) to get 1/16.

Sorry if this doesn't make sense.
