Answer:

The probability that the next muffin sold is a vanilla muffin is 0.2.

It is unlikely that this event occurs.

Answer:

see below

Explanation:

12 banana muffins, 10 chocolate muffins, 6 blueberry muffins, and 7 vanilla muffins.

The total number of muffins is 35 muffins

P(vanilla) = number of vanilla/ total

= 7/35

= 1/5

This is not likely to occur so it is an unlikely event
