Gustavo tested 1000 calculators to see if any were defective. The company claimed that the probability of a defective calculator was 1% per 1000 calculators. Gustavo found 15 defective calculators out of 1000.

What was the predicted frequency?

Predicted Frequency . . .

=(# of trials)(theoretical probability)
=(1000)(0.01)

The predicted frequency was ____
A: 1
B: 10
C: 100
D: 1000

What was the relative frequency?

Relative Frequency = Observed Frequency/Total Number of Trails

The relative frequency was _____
A: 0.15%
B: 1%
C: 1.5% 
D: 15% 

Respuesta :

We are to find the predicted and relative frequency of the defective calculators.

a) The company claimed that there is 1% probability of defective calculators out of 1000.
So predicted frequency = 1% of 1000 
= 0.01 x 1000
= 10

b) 15 defective calculators were found in 1000 calculators.
Relative Frequency = Observed Frequency / Total Number
= 15/1000 x 100%
= 1.5%

ITS 10

Then 1.5% thank this
