Bowl A 45 55

Bowl B 60 40

Bowl a and bowl b contain a number of white and red balls. Clark repeatedly selected a ball from both bowls and recorded the results in a table. If there are 500 balls in bowl b what is the estimated difference in the expected number of white and red balls in bowl b.

a. 300

b. 100

c. 200

d. 50

1 answer

The expected number of white balls selected from Bowl B can be calculated as (60/100)*500 = 300 white balls.

Similarly, the expected number of red balls selected from Bowl B can be calculated as (40/100)*500 = 200 red balls.

The estimated difference in the expected number of white and red balls in Bowl B is 300 - 200 = 100.

Therefore, the answer is b. 100.
