Suki's has 54 rock songs,92 dance songs,and 12 classical songs on her play list.If Suki's music player randomly selects a song from the playlist,what is the experimental probability that the song will not be a classical song?Explain your answer.
To find the experimental probability that the song will not be a classical song, we first need to determine the total number of songs on Suki's playlist.
Suki has a total of 54 rock songs + 92 dance songs + 12 classical songs = 158 songs on her playlist.
Now, we need to determine the number of songs on her playlist that are not classical. Since she has 12 classical songs, the number of songs that are not classical is 158 total songs - 12 classical songs = 146 songs.
Therefore, the experimental probability that the song randomly selected from Suki's playlist will not be a classical song is 146 songs / 158 total songs ≈ 0.924 or 92.4%.
This means that you have approximately a 92.4% chance of selecting a song from the playlist that is not classical.
To find the experimental probability that the song will not be a classical song, we need to divide the number of non-classical songs by the total number of songs on the playlist.
First, let's find the total number of songs on Suki's playlist:
Total number of songs = number of rock songs + number of dance songs + number of classical songs
Total number of songs = 54 + 92 + 12 = 158
Next, let's find the number of non-classical songs:
Number of non-classical songs = number of rock songs + number of dance songs
Number of non-classical songs = 54 + 92 = 146
Now, we can calculate the experimental probability:
Experimental probability = number of non-classical songs / total number of songs
Experimental probability = 146 / 158
Therefore, the experimental probability that the song will not be a classical song is approximately 0.9241, or 92.4%.
It will be either rock or dance.
Either-or probabilities are found by adding the individual probabilities.
54/158 + 92/158 = ?
