Two experiments are defined below. An event is defined for each of the experiments. Experiment I: Ryan draws a ball from a bag that contains six balls, each of a different color. Only one of the balls is red. Event A: Ryan draws a red ball from the bag. Experiment II: Anna rolls a standard six-sided die. Event B: Anna rolls a five. Which statement about Event A and Event B is true?

    The probability of both events happening is 1/6 I. e their probabilities are the same

    Step-by-step explanation:

    In this question, we are asked to compare two different probabilities in two different scenarios and write a statement that is true about the two events.

    For experiment A, we have 6 different balls, with a single red ball. Let's say what is the probability of selecting a ref ball?

    This can be written as;

    P (red) = 1/6

    In the second experiment, Anna rolls a die, what is the probability of the number 5 turning up. Since in a die, we only have the number 5 listed once, the probability of a number 5 turning up will be;

    P (5) = 1/6

    Hence, the true statement about both events is that the probabilities of both event A and B occurring is equal to each other
