Keno. In the game of keno, 20 balls are selected at random from 80 balls numbered 1–80.
- a. Use Table I in Appendix A to simulate one game of keno by obtaining 20 random numbers between 1 and 80. Start at the two-digit number in line number 5 and column numbers 31–32, read down the column, up the next, and so on.
- b. If you have access to a random-number generator, use it to solve part (a).

Next, there are three progressively larger rings – blue, black, and white. The diameter of each ring is 10 inches larger than the diameter of the previous ring. John is a beginner so his aim is poor and, if his arrow hits the target, its location on the target is completely at random. John shoots and then yells, “I hit it!” Without using your calculator, find the following probabilities. Write the answers as a percentage. a) The probability his arrow landed in the gold circle is ______. b) The probability his arrow landed in the white area is ______. c) The probability his arrow landed in the red or the blue area is ______.arrow_forwardIn a population of 200,000 people, 20,000 are infected with a virus.

- Aidan is a goalie for his school’s hockey team. He normally stops 87% of the shots that come his way. In one particularly bad game, he let five of the 15 shots into the goal. He decides to cheer himself up by convincing himself that this game would be unusual for a goalie who stops 87% of the shots. He uses the table of random digits below using the rule that he will read across the row, two digits at a time, with 01–87 indicating a stop and 88–99 and 00 indicating a goal, until 15 attempts are recorded. 61373 70629 96541 81508 28214 06485 Which of the following statements about this random number table best describes the simulation?
