D

Step-by-step explanation:

This is experimental probability where it is asking for probability of a future event BASED on past data.

In past 10 years data, the number of years that had OVER 5 inches of rain is:

7 years had over 5 inches of rain (5 is not included as it is ABOVE 5 inches)

So the probability is (this is 70%)

So the probability of having MORE THAN 5 inches rain in next year is the SAME.

So the probability is 70%
