A Quality controller inspected 1000 units of a product and rejected 150 units due to defects approximate the empirical probability that a unit will pass the inspection.
The empirical probability that a unit will pass the inspection can be calculated by dividing the number of units that passed the inspection by the total number of units inspected.
Number of units that passed the inspection = 1000 - 150 = 850
Total number of units inspected = 1000
Empirical probability = Number of units that passed the inspection / Total number of units inspected
Empirical probability = 850 / 1000
Empirical probability = 0.85
Therefore, the empirical probability that a unit will pass the inspection is approximately 0.85 or 85%.
