Question

Given a set of numbers (0,1,2,3,4,5,6) if one of the set is chosen at random, find the

probability that the number is a solution of 3x-4 < 11

Answer 1

This probability is 5/7

Explanation:

Rewriting this problem may make it appear to be more manageable.

The probability that the number is a solution of 3x-4 < 1 simplies to "x < 5".

This probability is 5/7, since {0, 1, 2, 3, 4} are all less than 5.
