Question

Using Shana's simulation, what is the probability of pulling a pink star and the coin landing on tails? (5 points)

a
fraction 578 over 3,600

b
fraction 646 over 3,600

c
fraction 34 over 60

d
fraction 51 over 60
Shana uses a probability simulator to pull colored stars from a bag 60 times and to flip a coin 60 times. The results are shown in the tables below:

Answer 1

Explanation:

PInk star 17 out of 60 pulls = 17/60

Tails 34 out of (26+34 =) 60 tries = 34/60

Prob of pink star and tails = 17/60 * 34/60 = 578/3600
