Match the proposed probability under Column C1 with the appropriate written description under column C2 :
C1 Probability |
C2 Probability |
||
a | 0.95 | i | An incorrect assignment |
b | 0.02 | ii | no chance of happening |
c | -0.3 | iii | as much chance of happening as not |
d | 0.5 | iv | very likely to happen |
e | 0 | v | very little chance of happening |
(a) Since 0.95 is very close to 1, it is very likely to happen.
Thus, (a) → (iv)
(b) The probability of 0.02 is very low, hence there is very little chance of happening, thus, (b) → (v)
(c) Since the probability of -0.3 is negative, and we know that probability can never be negative, thus it is an incorrect assignment, thus, (c) → (i)
(d) For 0.5 the sum of chances of happening and not happening is 1, hence it has as much chance of happening as not, thus, (d) → (iii)
(e) For 0, there is no chance of happening, thus, (e) →(ii)
