Determine whether each number could be the probability of an event. Explain your reasoning.

1.5
1

1.5--> Not a probability

1---> Can be a probability

Step-by-step explanation:

The range of the probability of an event is given by 0≤P(E)≤1

The probability of an event E, P(E) cannot be greater than 1.

This means P(E)≠1.5

P(E)=1 could be a probability of an event because it falls within the range.

Probability of an event being 1, means the event is certain to happen.

a

step-by-step explanation:

when a number is between two straight lines it means the absolute value.

to find absolute value you need to know how many numbers is that number away from 0.

when finding absolute value the number will always come out positive

so absolute value of -3 is 3

absolute value of 3/2 is 3/2

absolute value of -2 is 2

absolute value of 3.5 is 3.5

absolute value of -1 is 1

now put these numbers in order:

a)   |-1|, |3/2|, |-2|, |-3|, |3.5|

a.)the line for function b is steeper
