The Bayesian statistician Bruno de Finetti (1906–1985) began his 1973 book on probability theory with the declaration: "PROBABILITY DOES NOT EXIST." The capitals appeared in the original, so I imagine de Finetti wanted us to shout this statement. What he meant is that probability is a device for describing uncertainty from the perspective of an observer with limited knowledge; it has no objective reality. Discuss the globe tossing example from the chapter, in light of this statement. What does it mean to say "the probability of water is 0.7"?
Answer:
It means that if we select a random point around the globe, there is a 70% = 0.7 probability that it represents water.
Step-by-step explanation:
A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.
In this question:
We know, that the planet Earth is formed 70% by water, and the globe represents this. This means, as the statement says, the if we select a random point around the globe, there is a 70% = 0.7 probability that it represents water.

Answer:
40.72units^2
Step-by-step explanation:
Given data
Radius= 3.6 units
The area is given as
A=πr^2
substitute
A=3.142*3.6^2
A=3.142*12.96
A=40.72units^2
Hence the area is 40.72units^2

Write your answer as a fraction in simplest form.
M
Answer:
61%
Step-by-step explanation:

Ally picked 25 roses. She gave away 10 roses. What percent of the roses does Ally still have?
Answer:
She still has 60%
Step-by-step explanation:
First you make the 25 a 100 which is basically multiply by 4 which you should do the same for 10
so 40/100 is how much she game away
She gave away 40%
She still has 60%
The percent of the roses does Ally still have is 60%.
Given that,
Ally picked 25 roses. She gave away 10 roses.
Based on the above information, the calculation is as follows:
[tex]= \frac{25-10}{25}[/tex]
= 60%
