Design and conduct a simulation to estimate the probability that she will strike out at her next at bat this season

Explanation of Solution
Given:
Zoe struck out during 10% of her at bats last season.
Calculation:
Step 1 :
Possible Outcomes | Theoritical Probability |
Zoe struck out | 10% |
Zoe does not struck out | (100-10)% = 90% |
Step 2:
The simulation will consist of 40 trials.
Step 3:
We can use a spinner divided into two sectors, one containing 10% of spinner’s area and the other containing 90% of spinner’s area .Find the measurement of central
Zoe struck out =
Zoe does not struck out =
: Blue sector
Step 4:
A trial means one spin on the spinner , represents one strike on bat by Zoe.
A successful trial will be Zoe does not struck out and a failed trial means Zoe struck out.
The simulation will consist of 40 trials.

- Can someone help me with this please?arrow_forwardMariela is in her classroom and looking out of a window at a tree, which is 20 feet away. Mariela’s line of sight to the top of the tree creates a 42° angle of elevation, and her line of sight to the base of the tree creates a 31° angle of depression. What is the height of the tree, rounded to the nearest foot? Be sure to show your work to explain how you got your answer.arrow_forward1arrow_forward
