The probability non-strike event is
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
Event:
Bridget is a member of the bowling club at her school. Last season she belowed a strike
Calculation:
Suppose, a bowler got a strike
Based on geometric model, let the rolls of a six-sided die simulate the bowlers strikes for the upcoming season. Since the bowler got strikes
Then let the numbers
Now roll a die
Outcome | Frequency |
Strike | |
Non-Strike | |
Total |
Now, divide each frequency in the frequency table to get the probabilities for each outcome.
Outcome | Frequency | Probability |
Strike | ||
Non-Strike | ||
Total |
Make a probability histogram by charting probability on the vertical axis and outcomes on the horizontal axis.
Hence, therefore that the bowler gets a strike on the bowlers next turn is
Therefore, the probability non-strike event is
