The table of random digits (Table B) was produced by a random mechanism that gives each digit probability 0.1 of being a 0. (a) What proportion of the first 10 digits in the table are Os? Read the table from line 101 from the top left corner line by line. This proportion is an estimate, based on 10 repetitions, of the true probability, which we know is 0.1. Give your answer to three decimal places. proportion:
(b) The Probability applet can imitate random digits. Set the probability of heads in the applet to 0.1. Check "Show true probability" to show this value on the graph. A head stands for a 0 in the random digit table and a tail stands for any other digit. Simulate 10 digits (set the "Number of Tosses" to 10 and click on "Toss"). Make a note separately or on paper of the result of your 10 tosses. Assume another student used the Probability applet as described to simulate the 10 digits. Which of the statements is most likely to be true? O The student got one zero. The student got five zeros. If the student simulates, again he/she will get the same number of zeros. All of the other options are approximately equally likely.
