Lori passes 80% of her tests. In the next week, Lori has 4 tests. She wants to determine the probability that she passes all 4 of the tests.Which simulation design has an appropriate device and a correct trial?A) Let Heads represent Lori passing a test and Tails represent Lori failing a test. Flip the coin four times. B) Roll a die letting 1-5 represent Lori passing a test and 6 represent Lori failing a test. Roll the die four times. C) Spin a spinner that is split up into 5 sections, where 4 sections are a success of passing a test. Spin the spinner four times. D) Using a random digits table select one digit numbers where 0-8 is a passing grade and 9 is a failing grade. Select four digits.
Question
Answer:
Since Lori passes 80% of her tests you need to make sure that the randomizing device has 80% of the outcomes assigned to passing and 20% of the outcomes assigned to failing. The correct answer is Spin a spinner that is split up into 5 sections, where 4 sections are a success of passing a test. Spin the spinner four times.
