The empirical probability that a unit will pass the inspection can be calculated by finding the proportion of units that passed the inspection out of the total units inspected.
Number of units that passed inspection = 1,000 - 150 = 850
Total number of units inspected = 1,000
Empirical probability = Number of units that passed inspection / Total number of units inspected
Empirical probability = 850 / 1,000 = 0.85
Therefore, the approximate empirical probability that a unit will pass the inspection is 85% or 0.85.
None of the given options match this answer, but the closest one is "1.5%", which is incorrect.
A quality controller inspected 1,000 units of a product and rejected 150 units due to defects. Approximate the empirical probability that a unit will pass the inspection.(1 point)
