Question

give an example of an event that has each of the following probabilities.
a. 0.25
b. 0
c. \\( \frac { 1 } { 3 } \\)
d. 1

Explanation:

For part a, when flipping a fair coin twice, the probability of getting exactly one head is \(0.25\). For part b, the probability of getting a number greater than \(6\) when rolling a standard six - sided die is \(0\). For part c, when rolling a fair die, the probability of getting a \(1\) or \(2\) is \(\frac{1}{3}\). For part d, the probability of getting a number less than \(7\) when rolling a standard six - sided die is \(1\).

Answer:

a. Flipping a fair coin twice and getting exactly one head.
b. Rolling a standard six - sided die and getting a number greater than \(6\).
c. Rolling a fair die and getting a \(1\) or \(2\).
d. Rolling a standard six - sided die and getting a number less than \(7\).
