Question 350694: A test consists of 10 true/false questions. To pass the test a student must

You can put this solution on YOUR website! There are 2 answer choices, with only 1 being correct. Therefore you have a 50% chance at getting the correct answer. If you need 7/10 of the test correct you can multiply the 50% chance by 7/10.

Therefore, you have a 35 percent chance at passing if you guess on all of the questions.
