Question

The dog shelter has Labradors, Terriers, and Golden Retrievers available for adoption. If P(terriers) = 15%, interpret the likelihood of randomly selecting a terrier from the shelter.

Likely
Unlikely
Equally likely and unlikely
This value is not possible to represent probability of a chance event

Answer 1

likely

Explanation:

The value of 15% does not represent the probability of randomly selecting a terrier from the shelter. Probability is a measure of the likelihood that a certain event will occur, and 15% does not provide enough information to calculate a probability.
