Answer: a) 0 and 0.01 b) 0.99 and 1 c) 0.3 d) 0.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability is the likelihood that an event will occur. Probability values always lies between 0 and 1 0<P<1

A sure event occurs when the probability is 1 or values pretty close to 1 while probability of an impossible event is 0 or values close to 0. Looking at the given probability values, we can conclude that!

a) 0 and 0.01 = The event is impossible, it would never occur.

b) 0.99 and 1 - The event is certain, it would always occur.

c) 0.3 - The event is highly unlikely, but it will occur once in a while.

d) 0.6 - The event will occur more often than not.

Answer:

a) 0  b) 1  c) 0.01  d)  0.3 or 0.6 or 0.99

Step-by-step explanation:

  • If the event is impossible then the probability of the event to occur is 0.
  • If the event is certain to occur then the probability is 1.
  • If the event is highly unlikely but will occur once in a while means the probability is very less and 0.01 is the most apt option.
  • If the event will occur more often then the probability can be 0.3 or 0.6 or 0.99 depending on the number of occurences.
