Which of the following values cannot be​ probabilities? 3/5​, 2​, 0​, 1​, −0.45​, 1.44​, 0.05​, 5/3 Select all the values that cannot be probabilities.

Given:

The numbers are .

To find:

All the values that cannot be probabilities.

Solution:

We know that,

The minimum value of favorable outcomes is 0 and the maximum value is equal to the total outcomes. So, the value of probability lies between 0 and 1, inclusive. It other words, the probability lies in the interval [0,1].

From the given values only lie in the interval [0,1]. So, these values can be probabilities.

The values does not lie in the interval [0,1]. So, these values cannot be probabilities.

Therefore, the correct values are .

you can first factor out the n to get n(1+5). we know that 1+5 is 6, so we just have 6n.
