A

is the value that occurs the most

31
Q

range

A

results from subtracting the least value from the greatest value

32
Q

probibility

A

the measure of likelihood that an event will occur. the probability of an event is the number between 0 and 1. the closer the event is to 0 the less likely it will occur, the closer it is to 1 the more likely it will occur. the probability of an event, P, is calculated by the ratio.
number of specific outcomes
p= ——————————————
