Research has shown that 25% of homeless adults are veterans. What are the probability of selecting a particular homeless person who is not a veteran

Respuesta :

Answer:

75%

Explanation:

if 25% of homeless veterans then the rest of the 75% are probably not veterans.

The probability of selecting a homeless person that is not a veteran is 75%

Probability calculates the chances of an event occurring. Th chances of an event occurring lie between zero and one. A value of one is given if the event occurs and zero if the event does not occur.

For example, the probability that a girl would enter the class is between 0 and 1. If a girl enters the class, a value of one is attached to the event. I a boy enters the class, a value of zero is attached to the event

The probability that a homeless person is not a veteran = 100 - percentage of homeless veteran

= percentage of  100 - 25% = 75% or 0.75
