A. While visiting, Tim asks his daughter Kacy to choose one individual animal at random. Find the probability that Kacy will choose Zoya the tiger or any llama. B. Notice that 50% of the animals at the Armadillo City Zoo are meerkats. At Kacy's school, there is a class of 30 kids who all claim to have visited this zoo. Tim asked them individually to think about the animals they saw and choose one individual animal from the zoo at random. If the kids are truly choosing an animal from this zoo at random, what proportion should choose a meerkat? C. Only one kid in the class actually identified a meerkat. What proportion of kids chose a meekat? D. Refer to your answers from Parts B and C. Do you think these 30 kids were actually thinking about the animals at the Armadillo City Zoo when they answered Tim's question, or were they probably thinking about some other collection of animals?
