Question

In a given week, a veterinarian treated the animals in the accompanying table. Use this information to complete parts (a)through (c).a Determine the empirical probability that the next animal she treats is a bird.b) Determine the empirical probability that the next animal she treats is a rabbit.c) Determine the empirical probability that the next animal she treats is a dog.-..a) P(bird) = (Type an integer or a simplified fraction.AnimalDogCatBirdRabbitNumber Treat4530510

Answer 1

From the information given,

total number of animals = 45 + 30 + 5 + 10 = 90

Number of dogs = 45

Number of cats = 30

Number of birds = 5

Number of Rabbits = 10

a) the empirical probability that the next animal she treats is a bird = 5/90

P(Bird) = 1/18

b) the empirical probability that the next animal she treats is a rabbit = 10/90

P(Rabbit) = 1/9

c) the empirical probability that the next animal she treats is a dog = 45/90

P(Dog) = 1/2
