(a) The probability that a randomly selected high school student plays organized sports can be calculated by dividing the number of students who play organized sports by the total number of students surveyed.
131/300 = 0.4367
So, the probability is 0.4367 or 43.67%.
(b) This probability suggests that there is a 43.67% chance that any randomly selected high school student plays organized sports.
A survey of 300
randomly selected high school students determined that 131
play organized sports.
