To find the empirical probability that a unit will pass the inspection, we need to calculate the proportion of units that passed the inspection out of the total number inspected.
Number of units that passed inspection = 1000 - 150 = 850
Total number of units inspected = 1000
Empirical probability of a unit passing inspection = Number of units that passed inspection / Total number of units inspected
= 850 / 1000
= 0.85 or 85%
Therefore, the empirical probability that a unit will pass the inspection is 85%.
