Question

Dan and Brian have played 51 tennis matches. Dan has won 29 times. Brian won the rest. a) Estimate the probability that Dan wins. b) Estimate the probability that Brian wins.

Answer 1

Answer:

a)  29/51 b) 22/51

Step-by-step explanation:

P(E)=  no. of favourable  outcomes/ total no. of possible outcomes

a) no. of possible outcomes= 51

   no. of favourable outcomes= 29

therefore, P(E)= 29/51

b) no. of possible outcomes= 51

   no. of favourable outcomes= 51-29= 22

therefore, P(E)= 22/51
