Apaper cup is dropped and it’s landing position is recorded. the cup can land in the side, on the open end, or on the closed end. the results of 20 trials are shown in the table below: based on the table, which of the following best compares and experimental probability of the cup landing on its open end with the experimental probability of the cup landing on its closed end?
a. the probabilities are equal
b. the probability of landing on the open end is greater
c. the probability of landing in the closed end is greater
d. no conclusion can be made

The probability of landing in the closed end is greater, choice C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Experimental probability is evaluated as; the number of favorable outcomes/number of trials. Therefore, the experimental probability of the cup landing on its open end is given by; 5/20 = 0.25 while the experimental probability of the cup landing on its closed end is given by; 8/20 = 0.4 which is greater than 0.25.

it would open into a square depending on the type of envelope i’m not sure about the second part

answer: your correct answer is b. d.
