Answer:
Option C
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that a spinner has 6 parts numbered 1-6.
If the result is 1 or 6 then a player wins the number times $10.00.If the result is 2-5 then the player loses the number times $5.
Number of cases when the player wins number times $10.00=1 or 6=2
Number of cases when the player loses the number times $5=2,3,4,5=4
Total number of cases =6
Formula for finding probability
P(E)=[tex]\frac{Number \;of\; favourable\; cases}{Total \; number\; of \; cases}[/tex]
Applying this formula
The probability of wining=[tex]\frac{2}{6}[/tex]
The probability of wining=[tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex]
The probability of wining=0.33
The probability of losing=[tex]\frac{4}{6}[/tex]
The probability of losing=[tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]
The probability of losing=0.66
Hence, the probability of losing is higher than that of winning.
Therefore, option C is true.
