(a) The probability 0.12 indicates that the event is certain to happen the event is as likely to happen as not the event may happen but it is not likely the event is very likely to happen but it is not certain it would be unusual for this event to happen the event cannot happen someone made a mistake (b) The probability 0.87 indicates that

Probability is a measure of how likely an event is to occur. Match one of the probabilities that follow with each statement of likelihood given. Type the correct letter in each box. 1. This event is certain. It will occur on every trial. 2. This event is impossible. It will never happen. 3. This event will occur more often than not. 4. This event will occur a little less than half the time over a long sequence of trials. A. 0 B. 0.43 C. 1 D. 0.59

A student performed an experiment to determine how likely a particular event is. His calculated number for probability is 1.02. What conclusion should he make? a) The event is very likely. b) The event is unlikely. c) Something is wrong with either the experiment or calculation or both. d) The event will almost certainly happen. When calculating probabilities, one should follow the following rules. Select all correct answers. a) Leave the answer as a fraction. b) Round decimals to three decimal places. c) Round to two decimal places. d) Never leave the answer as a fraction. Calculate the probability of getting a sum of 10 when two fair 6-sided dice are rolled. a) 0.056 b) 0.083333 c) 0.083 d) 0.083
