Question

Assuming that samir is equally likely to hit each of the \[10\] targets, what is the probability that he will miss at least one of them? Round your answer to the nearest tenth. \[p(\text{at least one miss})=\]

Answer 1

To find the probability that Samir will miss at least one target, we can subtract the probability of hitting all 10 targets from 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the probability that Samir will miss at least one target, we can find the probability of him hitting all 10 targets and subtract it from 1.

Since he is equally likely to hit each target, the probability of hitting one target is 1/10.

Therefore, the probability of hitting all 10 targets is (1/10)^10.

Subtracting this from 1 gives us the probability of him missing at least one target.

P(at least one miss) = 1 - (1/10)^10

Rounding to the nearest tenth, the probability that he will miss at least one target is approximately 0.651.
