On a weather app, it shows the weather forecast for tomorrow with hourly weather predictions (for 24 hours). It will rain some time in the day.- List all the possible outcomes for the weather at any time tomorrow.
- Write the probabilities for each possible outcome. Are the outcomes equally as likely?
- If you went outside at any random time tomorrow, how likely will you need to bring an umbrella?
- If the weather forecast for the next day has the same outcomes as tomorrow, but they will be equally as likely to happen. How many hours out of the day will it be predicted to rain?
