Question

the following probability model shows the distribution of injuries of youth baseball players, ages 5 - 14, according to researchers at sportmedbc. complete parts (a) through (d).

(d) what is the probability that a randomly selected baseball injury to a 5 - 14 - year - old is to something other than the face? interpret this probability.

p(location other than the face) = 0.668
(round to three decimal places as needed.)

interpret this probability. select the correct choice and fill in the answer box to complete your choice

a. if 1000 baseball injuries to 5 - 14 - year - olds were randomly selected, one would expect about of them to be in a location that is not the face.

b. if 1000 baseball injuries to 5 - 14 - year - olds were randomly selected, one would expect exactly of them to be in a location that is not the face.

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate the expected number

The formula for expected number \(E = n\times p\), where \(n = 1000\) (number of trials) and \(p=0.668\) (probability).
\(E=1000\times0.668\)

Step2: Simplify the expression

\(1000\times0.668 = 668\)

Answer:

A. If 1000 baseball injuries to 5 - 14 - year - olds were randomly selected, one would expect about \(668\) of them to be in a location that is not the face.
