The probability that a unit will pass the inspection can be calculated by taking the number of units that pass divided by the total number of units inspected.
Number of units that pass = 1000 - 150 = 850
Probability = Number of units that pass / Total number of units inspected = 850 / 1000 = 17/20
Therefore, the approximate empirical probability that a unit will pass the inspection is 17/20 or 85%.
