The relative frequency approach to probability uses long term relative frequencies, often based on past data. a. True
b. False

True

Step-by-step explanation:

Relative frequency is the ratio of the occurrence of a singular event and the total number of outcomes. This is a tool that is often used after you collect data. You can compare a single part of the data to the total amount of data collected.

For example, if a particular machine produces 50,000 widgets one at a time, and 5,000 of those widgets are faulty, the probability of that machine producing a faulty widget is approximately 5,000 out of 50,000, or 0.10.
