Which of the following values cannot be​ probabilities? 0.08​, 5 divided by 3​, startroot 2 endroot​, negative 0.59​, 1​, 0​, 1.44​, 3 divided by 5 select all the values that cannot be probabilities. a. five thirds b. 1.44 c. 1 d. startroot 2 endroot e. three fifths f. 0.08 g. 0 h. negative 0.59

-1 it’s the only negative

c,-0.45 ,

e. 1.16

g. 5/3

h. √2

Cannot be probability.

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability of any occurrence is always in the interval of 0 to 1. 0 and 1 inclusive.

0≤P(A)≤1

Any value outside this boundaries cannot be probability.

Therefore, -0.45,1.16,5/3 and √2 cannot be probability.

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability of any incidence can only be a rational number.

Porbability can never be less than zero. It is basically defined as the ratio of

chance of occurence of an event to the total possible ways of occurence of the event. So an event cannot occur and the probability can be zero but never negative.

being a irrational number cannot be a possibkle vlue for probability.

Hence values which cannot be possible are .

B and G

Step-by-step explanation:

These cant be probabilities because they are irrational.

B.) square root of 2

E.) -0.54

G.) 5/3

H.) 1.29

Step-by-step explanation:

A probability of an event is how likely the event is to occur. It is always positive values, between 0% and 100%, or as decimals, between 0 and 1.

A.) 1

Can be a probability

B.) square root of 2

The square root of 2 is 1.41. 1.41 is higher than 1, so square root of 2 cannot be a probability

C.) 0

Can be a probability

D.) 0.04

0.04 = 4%

Can be a probability

E.) -0.54

Negative values cannot be probabilities

F.) 3/5

3/5 = 0.6 = 60%

Can be a probability

G.) 5/3

5/3 = 1.67

Higher than 1, so cannot be a probability

H.) 1.29

Higher than 1, cannot be a probability

negative 0.57

1.21

√2

5/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability is the possibility of an event occurring and it takes the Formula:

Probability of an event occurring = favourable outcome/possible outcome.

Since favourable & possible outcomes of an event can only be positive integers and the possible outcome of an event is always more than its favourable outcome, then probability can only take positive values and values in between 0 and 1.

From our given options, infering from the above explanation the figures that cannot be the outcome of a probability are:

Negative 0.57 (-0.57)

1.21

5 divided by 3 (5/3)

Question:

Which of the following values cannot be probabilities? 3 / 5,  2,  5 / 3,  1.39, −0.57,  1,  0,  0.04 Select all the values that cannot be probabilities.

A. 0

B. 2

C. 3 / 5

D. − 0.57

E. 0.04

F. 1.39

G. 5 / 3

H. 1

B, D, F, G

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability, P(A), of an event A occurring is given by;

0 ≤ P(A) ≤ 1

This means that the probability of an event happening is always between 0 and 1 (both inclusive).

Therefore;

=> 3 / 5 is a valid probability value as;

0 ≤ 3/5 ≤ 1

=> 2 is NOT a valid probability value as 2 is not within the range 0 and 1

=> 5 / 3 is NOT a valid probability value as 5 / 3 = 1.6667 is not withing the range 0 and 1

=> 1.39 is NOT a valid probability value

=> -0.57 is NOT valid. Probability values are not and cannot be negative.

=> 1 is a valid probability value. This just means that the probability that an event will occur is 100% likely.

=> 0 is a valid probability value. This just means that the probability that an event will occur is 0% likely.

=> 0.04 is valid as;

0 ≤ 0.04 ≤ 1
