To find the empirical probability that a unit will pass the inspection, we need to divide the number of units that passed by the total number of units inspected:
Number of units that passed = 1000 - 150 = 850
Total number of units inspected = 1000
Empirical probability of passing the inspection = Number of units that passed / Total number of units inspected
= 850 / 1000
= 0.85
Therefore, the empirical probability that a unit will pass the inspection is approximately 0.85 or 85%.
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.
