question 7 of 10
you go through many years worth of meteorological reports and find that 65% of all aprils in your city have at least 5 inches of rain. you create a model and run a simulation based on it, using (0 - 64) to represent an april that has 5 inches of rain.
64 56 87 48 31 23 40 80 54 64 81 05 12 30 51 35 49
how many consecutive aprils does your simulation show will have 5 inches of rain or more?
a. 5
b. 7
c. 4
d. 6

Explanation:

Step1: Identify valid numbers

Numbers in the range 0 - 64 represent Aprils with 5 inches of rain. Given numbers are 64 56 87 48 31 23 40 80 54 64 81 05 12 30 51 35 49.

Step2: Count consecutive valid numbers

Starting from the first number 64, we count consecutive numbers in the 0 - 64 range. We find the longest consecutive sequence is 64 56 48 31 23 40 which has 6 numbers.

Answer:

D. 6
