A company manufactured 1, 000 televisions. Testing showed that 20 of the televisons were defective. What is the experimental probability that the next television will be defective?

20/1000 = ?

0.02 To find the experimental probability that the next television will be defective, you need to calculate the ratio of the number of defective televisions to the total number of televisions. In this case, you have been given the information that out of 1,000 televisions, 20 were defective.

The formula for experimental probability is:
Experimental Probability = Number of favorable outcomes / Total number of possible outcomes

In this case:
Number of favorable outcomes (defective televisions) = 20
Total number of possible outcomes (total televisions) = 1,000

So, the experimental probability that the next television will be defective can be calculated as follows:

Experimental Probability = 20 / 1000
Experimental Probability = 0.02

Therefore, the experimental probability is 0.02, or 2%.
