Question

the fair spinner shown is spun 1 time. there are four possible outcomes, one for each color. based on the picture, which statements are true? the probability of each outcome is equal the probability of each outcome is different the outcomes have a uniform probability distribution the outcomes have a nonuniform distribution

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

A fair spinner means that each of the four possible outcomes (one for each color) has an equal chance of occurring. In probability, when each outcome has the same probability, the distribution of outcomes is called a uniform probability distribution. So the statements "The probability of each outcome is equal" and "The outcomes have a uniform probability distribution" are true. The statement "The probability of each outcome is different" is false because a fair spinner implies equal probabilities. The statement "The outcomes have a nonuniform distribution" is also false as uniform distribution is characteristic of a fair spinner with equal - probability outcomes.

Answer:

The probability of each outcome is equal; The outcomes have a uniform probability distribution.
