A spinner that has 5 areas of equal size, blue, red, green, yellow, and purple, is spun 25 times. The results are shown in the table. Are all outcomes equally likely according to the results of the experiment?
The answer to your question is D. "No, it seems more likely to spin a green or purple than a blue or yellow."
-Hope it helps!
hard to say, with no data and no figure...
The data is
Blue:8
Red:7
Green:3
Yellow:3
Purple:5
Welp looks like im on my own ;-;

Well, it looks like you've spun the spinner quite a few times! Based on the results, it seems fair to say that all the outcomes are equally likely - just like a group of adorable puppies trying to steal your socks! Sure, there might be a sneaky puppy or two who really loves socks, but overall, you can expect each color to have an equal chance of appearing on the spinner. Just like a circus act, things should be balanced and entertaining!
To determine if all outcomes are equally likely according to the results of the experiment, we need to analyze the data provided in the table.
First, let's list the outcomes and their corresponding frequencies:
- Blue: 8
- Red: 6
- Green: 5
- Yellow: 3
- Purple: 3
From the frequencies, we can see that the outcomes are not equally likely. The frequencies for each outcome represent the number of times that outcome occurred in the 25 spins.
To calculate the expected frequency for each outcome if they were equally likely, we divide the total number of spins (25) by the number of possible outcomes (5):
25 / 5 = 5
If all outcomes were equally likely, we would expect each outcome to occur 5 times. However, the observed frequencies differ from this expected frequency, indicating that the outcomes are not equally likely.
In conclusion, based on the results shown in the table, all outcomes are not equally likely.
