Answer:
A. 1.49
D. √2
E. five thirds
G. - 0.59
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to be a probability, a value must be at least zero, or at most 1:
[tex]0 \leq P\leq 1[/tex]
Evaluating each of the given values:
A. 1.49
1.49 is at least zero but it is greater than one, therefore 1.49 cannot be a probability.
B. 1
1 represents a probability of 100%, therefore this value can be a probability
C. three fifths
[tex]0\leq \frac{3}{5} \leq 1[/tex]
Can be a probability
D. √2
[tex]\sqrt 2 =1.41 > 1[/tex]
Cannot be a probability
E. five thirds
[tex]\frac{5}{3}=1.67>1[/tex]
Cannot be a probability
F. 0
0 represents a probability of 0%, therefore this value can be a probability
G. - 0.59
Negative values cannot be probabilities.
H. 0.04
[tex]0\leq 0.04 \leq 1[/tex]
Can be a probability
