ANSWER:
Answer
Step 1 of 2
(a)
Use a graphing calculator or statistical software to simulate the playing of the game of roulette, using an integer distribution with numbers 1 through 38. Repeat the simulation 100 times.
Let the number 37 represent 0 and the number 38 represent 00.
We are asked to find the probability that the ball lands in the slot marked 7.
Answers will vary depending on the output of the simulation.
Hence the probability that the ball lands in the slot marked 7 is
