Determine to which probability assignment approach the following statements belong and justify your answer.

a) There is a 20% probability that it will rain because it has rained 2 of the previous 10 days.

b) According to the experts, there is a 5% probability that a car will have an accident in the field, since it is considered that the risk is lower.

c) There is a 50% probability of choosing a boot since there are 10 boots among the 20 available shoes.

Expert Solution
Step 1

There are 3 examples,

We have to tell probability distribution for mentioned examples.

Mainly two types of probability distribution are :

1 : Discrete probability distribution

(normal,Binomial, Bernoulli, Poisson)

Poisson : How many times event happen in given time.

2 : Continuous probability distribution

(probability of continuous random variables)
