Answer:
0.28.
Step-by-step explanation:
It is given that a baseball player hit the ball 42 times out of the last 150 times at bat.
Total no of times he bat = 150
No. of times he hit the ball = 42
We need to find the player's experimental probability of getting a hit the next time at bat.
[tex]\text{Required Probability}=\dfrac{\text{No. of times he hit the ball}}{\text{Total no of times he bat}}[/tex]
[tex]\text{Required Probability}=\dfrac{42}{150}[/tex]
[tex]\text{Required Probability}=0.28[/tex]
Therefore, the required probability is 0.28.
