Question

4.1 empirical probability. empirical probability. a group of people were asked if they had run a red light in the last year. 284 responded \yes\, and 346 responded
o\. find the probability that if a person is chosen at random, they have run a red light in the last year. give your answer as a fraction or decimal accurate to at least 3 decimal places question help: video 1 video 2 message instructor submit question

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate total number of people

$284 + 346=630$

Step2: Calculate empirical probability

The probability $P$ that a randomly - chosen person has run a red light is the number of people who responded "yes" divided by the total number of people. So $P=\frac{284}{630}\approx0.451$

Answer:

$0.451$
