A quality controller inspected 1,000 units of a product and rejected 150 units due to defects. Approximate the empirical probability that a unit will pass the inspection.(1 point) Responses 320 Start Fraction 3 over 20 End Fraction 0.15% 0.15% 17/20 1.5%
The empirical probability that a unit will pass the inspection can be calculated as follows:
Number of units that passed inspection = Total number of units - Number of units rejected
Number of units that passed inspection = 1000 - 150 = 850
Empirical probability = Number of units that passed inspection / Total number of units
Empirical probability = 850 / 1000 = 0.85
Therefore, the empirical probability that a unit will pass the inspection is 0.85 or 85%.
Among the provided options, the closest one to 0.85 is 17/20.
