The estimated probability of a success is 40%.

Solución

To determine the estimated probability of a success when randomly generating integers from 1 to 5, where the numbers **1** and **2** represent a success, follow these steps: 1. **Total Possible Outcomes:** The integers range from 1 to 5, so there are **5** possible outcomes. 2. **Number of Successful Outcomes:** The numbers **1** and **2** are considered successes. Therefore, there are **2** successful outcomes. 3. **Probability Calculation:** The probability \( P \) of a success is given by the ratio of the number of successful outcomes to the total number of possible outcomes: \[ P = \frac{\text{Number of Successful Outcomes}}{\text{Total Possible Outcomes}} = \frac{2}{5} = 0.4 \text{ or } 40\% \] **Answer:** **D. \( 40 \% \)**

Beyond the Answer

To estimate the probability of a success, you first need to consider how many numbers in your range (1 to 5) represent a success. Since only numbers 1 and 2 indicate success, that gives us 2 successful outcomes out of 5 possible outcomes. This can be calculated as \( \frac{2}{5} \), which equals \( 0.4 \) or \( 40\% \). So, the answer is D. \( 40 \% \). Now, let’s consider how this concept of probabilities plays out in real life. For example, when rolling dice, understanding the probability of landing on a certain number can help in games or making decisions based on chance. In the context of sales forecasts, businesses might simulate various outcomes based on customers' choices to estimate success rates and adjust strategies accordingly.
