Respuesta :

Answer:

The correct option is;

D. 65% to 74%

Step-by-step explanation:

The accuracy of a forecast given based on a percentage or proportion or likelihood is determined by the based on the prevalence of the forecast in a similar proportion over the range of data points in which the forecast is made

Therefore, if it actually rained on 70% of those days for which the forecast was made, the forecast can be said to be very accurate.

Which is to say that the forecast of 70% chance of rain can be considered very accurate if it rained on 65 to 74% of those days which is in the range of the forecasted 70%.
