1. Each letter of the English alphabet is written on a scrap of paper and put in a hat. P(J) = . What type of probability is illustrated and why? (1 point)

A. theoretical; the result is based on the number of possible outcomes
B. theoretical; the result is found by repeating an experiment
C. experimental; the result is based on the number of possible outcomes
D. experimental; the result is found by repeating an experiment

Answer 1

The correct answer is A) theoretical, because the result is based on the number of possible outcomes.

There is 1 J out of 26 letters, so the probability would be 1/26.
