Olivia flips a two-sided counter and then spins a spinner with six equal-size sections labeled 1 through 6. One side of the counter is red. The other side is yellow. She performs this experiment 80 times. The relative frequency of tossing red and spinning a number greater than three was 25 . What is the difference between the number of expected outcomes and the number of actual outcomes?

The difference between the number of expected outcomes and the number of actual outcomes = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

She tosses a two sided counter and spins a spinner with six equal sized sections numbered 1 to 6.

Probability of the counter landing on either of the two sides is exactly = (1/2)

Probability of the counter landing on the red side = (1/2)

Probability of the spinner landing in a region greater than 3 = Probability of the spinner landing in a region of 4, 5 or 6. = (3/6) = (1/2)

In one toss and spin, the probability of a toss landing on red and the spinner landing on a number greater than 3 = p = (1/2)×(1/2)

p = (1/4)

Expected number of times that a toss will land on a red and a spinner will land on a number greater than 3 in 80 trials

= np = 80 × (1/4) = 20

Number of actual times that the toss lands on a red and a spinner lands on a number greater than 3 in 80 trials = 25

The difference between the number of expected outcomes and the number of actual outcomes = 25 - 20 = 5

Hope this Helps!!!

the answer is b
