An engineer tests the strength of a new material by seeing how much weight it can hold before breaking. Previous tests have held these weights in pounds: 1,200 1,400 1,300 1,500 950 1,600 1,100 Do you think that this material will be able to hold more than 1,000 pounds in the next test? Explain your reasoning. *

The material is 6 out of 7 times likely to support a load above 1,000 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

From the data in the given question, we have;

1,200, 1,400, 1,300, 1,500, 950, 1,600, 1,100

Therefore, we have;

The number of trials that the material has been used, n = 7 trials

The number of trials the material holds more than 1,000 pounds, P(W>1,000) = 6 trials

The probability that the material can hold more than 1,000 pounds, 'P' is given as follows;

P = P(W>1,000)/n

∴ P = 6/7

Therefore, the material is 6 out of 7 times likely to support a load above 1,000 pounds

answer: a. 13/44

step-by-step explanation: judging by the information given to us, we are looking for experimental probability. we can see that 13 males have chosen chocolate ice cream. there are 44 ice creams in total (remember that the total is always the denominator). so our answer is 13/44.
