1.What is the theoretical probability of popping a striped balloon?
2.What is the experimental probability of not popping a polka dot balloon?
18 solid balloons, 5 polka dot balloons and 17 striped balloons

Answer :

The probability of popping a balloon is the likelihood of the balloon

  • The theoretical probability of popping a stripped balloon is 1/3
  • The experimental probability of not popping a polka dot is 0.875

How to determine the probability?

The given parameters are:

  • Solid balloons = 18
  • Polka dots = 5
  • Stripped balloons = 17

There are three balloons.

So, the theoretical probability of popping a stripped balloon is:

P = 1/3

The experimental probability of not popping a polka dot is calculated as:

P = 1 - P(Polka dot)

This gives

P = 1 - 5/40

Evaluate

P = 0.875

Hence, the experimental probability of not popping a polka dot is 0.875
