The results of a survey asking 500 people about their favorite ice cream flavor are shown in the table. Find the experimental probability of each outcome in the sample space. Enter your answers in the boxes.

Chocolate = 18%

Vanilla = 25%

Strawberry = 12%

Mint Chip = 10%

Other = 35%

The explanation for me getting these exact percentages is because of the formulas given for calculating the percentages from specific numbers and real world problems like this. When you are trying to find the calculation precentages of these types of questions, you divide the number by the total surveyed and multiple by 100.

Example:

125 / 500 = 0.25

0.25 x 100 = 25%

So, this is also how I got the other numbers, just change the "125" to the other numbers.

the solution is h=10 because you add 9 to each side of the equation.

area of part 1:

a1=base*height/2=(8+2)*(8-2-2-1)/2=10*3/2=15 ft^2

area of part 2:

a2=length*width=(8+2)*1=10 ft2

area of part 3:

a3=length*width=8*2=16 ft2

total shaded area : a1+a2+a3=41 ft2

total area of the reactangle : a=16*8=128 ft2

total area of the nonshaded region : 128-41=87 ft2
