Probability
The probability of a certain event is a number expressing the likelihood that a specific event will occur, expressed as the ratio of the number of actual occurrences to the number of possible occurrences. In mathematics, it is a measure of how often an event will happen and is the basis of statistics.

What is the experimental probability that the next toss and spin will result in 3 and tails?
The experimental probability, by definition, can only be determined after you have carried out the experiment!
Since the probability is 1/4, the number of times this will happen will likely be close to 68 divided by 4.
What is the probability that a Monday is the birthday of a person?
Since there are seven days of the week, and there is no particular reason why more people would be born on one day of the week than on any other, the probability (for a randomly chosen person) is 1/7.
Which best describes how theretical probability is determined?
Theoretical probability is determined by using scientific principles to determine the mechanism through which the required event occurs.
It is 7/8.
It is 1/12.
Technical risk.

In the last 40 days Mr.Neptune's newspaper has been delivered late 6 times what is the probability?
Just dividing 6 and 40 and looking at the percentage that pops up, we could obviously see that it is unlikely that it will happen the next day. The percentage is 15% which is supposedly added in the unlikely section.
What is likely to result from the event referred to in the headline?
the representatives will realize that campaign funding is an issue important to the people he represents
How many unique ways are there to arrange the letters in the word APE?
six
each of the three first letters has the other two alternating
so 3 x 2 = 6
APE AEP PAE PEA EAP EPA
9 out of 30, which simplifies to 3 out of 10.
The answer is 50%.
What do we call the table used to calculate the probability of an offsprings genotype?
It is called a punnet square.
The answer is 1/169.
What is a example of cluster sampling?
Cluster sampling is a scheme which is used when sampling from the whole population would be too expensive - in terms of time or money. The sample space is divided into clusters, a random sample of clusters is selected and then every member of the population within the selected clusters is studied.
For example, suppose you wanted to collect information from schools across a country and had calculated that a 5% sample was required. Rather than criss-crossing the country, you could divide the country into units: for example counties. You then select counties (your clusters) so that they cover 5% of the nation's schools. Visit each chosen county and sample all schools in it. The selection of counties would probably also need to be controlled so that urban and rural areas are properly represented.
What is an expression of possible loss, adverse outcome, or negative consequence in terms of probability and severity

What is The probability of The next 7 births being girls?
There is no simple answer to the question because the children's genders are not independent events. They depend on the parents' ages and their genes.
However, if you assume that they are independent events then, the probability that the next seven births are girls (given that the global probability of a girl is 0.48), is 0.00614 approx.
The probability that the sum of the numbers rolled is either even or a multiple of 5 is 11/18.
