Whats the theoretical probability of popping a polka dot balloon? express your answer as a fraction, decimal and percent

solid 15

polka dot 5

striped 17
PLZZ HELP ME DUE TOMORROW

5 / 37

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution:-

- An archer stall game was played to receive a prize to pierce an arrow through a polka dot balloon.

- There are three types of balloons clustered together. The distribution of each balloon is given as such:

                 Type                        Number

                 Solid                             15

                 Striped                          17

                 Polka Dot                      5

- The probability of an arrow piercing through a polka dot balloon can be determined from the basic definition of probability of an event.

- Define event ( A ) : The number of Polka dots balloon popped

- Then, the probability of event ( A ) would be defined as:

    p ( A ) =  [ Number of polka dots balloons available ] / [ Total balloons ]

- We have 5 polka dots balloons among the cluster. The cluster comprises of balloons of all types with their specific distribution as expressed above. Hence:

                  p ( A ) = [ 5 ] / [ 15 + 17 + 5 ]

                  p ( A ) = [ 5 ] / [ 37 ]

- The probabbility that an arrow pops a polka dot balloon is 5 / 37.

Note: If we are given more than 1 arrow or multiple tries, then we must remember that the probability of event ( A ) changes after every popped balloon ( irrespective of type ). Hence, the probability of popping polka dot balloon is dependent event over number of trials. Except if you miss an arrow and none of the balloons is popped, only then the p ( A ) remains same for the next trial.

this is not a question

i think the amount would be $140.62
