In a certain card game, the probability that a player is dealt a particular hand is 0.3. Explain what this probability means. If you play this card game 100 times, will you be dealt this hand exactly 30 times? Why or why not?
A. The probability 0.36 means that approximately 36 out of every 100 dealt hands will be that particular hand. No, you will not be dealt this hand exactly 36 times since the probability refers to what is expected in the short-term, not long-term.
B. The probability 0.36 means that exactly 36 out of every 100 dealt hands will be that particular hand. Yes, you will be dealt this hand exactly 36 times since the probability refers to long-term behavior, not short-term.
C. The probability 0.36 means that approximately 36 out of every 100 dealt hands will be that particular hand. No, you will not be dealt this hand exactly 36 times since the probability refers to what is expected in the long-term, not short-term.
D. The probability 0.36 means that exactly 36 out of every 100 dealt hands will be that particular hand. Yes, you will be dealt this hand exactly 36 times since the probability refers to short-term behavior, not long-term.
