Respuesta :
2 of the 40 students are boys with red hair. If one is chosen at random, ...
the probability that the student is a boy with red hair is 2/40 = 0.05.
the probability that the student is a boy with red hair is 2/40 = 0.05.
Answer:
0.05
Step-by-step explanation:
Given :
Hair Color Boys Girls
Black 4 5
Blonde 4 6
Brown 10 8
Red 2 1
Solution :
Since ware required to find the probability that a student is a boy with red hair.
Total no. of boys with red hair = 2
Total no. of students = 4+4+10+2+5+6+8+1=40
Thus the probability that a student is a boy with red hair = [tex]\frac{\text{No. of boys with red hair }}{\text{total no. of students }}[/tex]
⇒[tex]\frac{2}{40}[/tex]
⇒[tex]\frac{1}{20}[/tex]
⇒[tex]0.05[/tex]
Hence the probability that a student is a boy with red hair is 0.05
