Question

You plant 30 African violet seeds and 9 of them sprout. Use experimented probability to predict how many will sprout if you plant 20 seeds?

Please helpp

Answer 1

Given that out of 30 planted seeds only 9 of the m sprouted, then:

Experimental probability =(number of occurrence of event)/(total number of trials made)

=9/30

=3/10

thus the number of seeds that will sprout given that 20 seeds we planted will be:

3/10×20

=6 seeds
