Rita has a record of making 2 out of every 5 free throws What is the probability that she will make both of her next two free throws?

It should be a 16% chance. If she makes 2 out of 5 free throws, that's a 40% chance she'll make a free throw. The probability that she makes two in a row is therefore .4 * .4 = .16, or 16%.

What is probability sampling and non probability sampling?
In probability sampling,every item in the population has a known chance of being selected as a member.In non-probability sampling, the probability that any item in the population will be selected for a sample cannot be determined.
What is true of a random sample?
Every member in the population has the same probability of being in the sample.Or, equivalently, every set of the given sample size has the same probability of being selected.
What is the probability of a tornado touching down in Kansas?
The probability of a tornado hitting Kansas is 100%. Dozens of tornadoes occur in Kansas every year.
What is the probability that a month will contain 28 days?
It is 1. Every month contains 28 days.
What is the probability that none of the rolls is a six?
It depends on what size die you use, what its labels are and how many rolls you make. For example using a standard six-sided die and one roll, the probability of no sixes is 5/6 or ~0.83; the probability of no sixes with 25 rolls is less than 0.01 or 1%. If you used a standard d3 (three-sided die) then the probability will always be 1 or 100%, since rolling a six is impossible; but if every side has '6' on it the probability is 0, since every roll must be a 6.

What is the experimental probability of rolling a 3?
The experimental probability of anything cannot be answered without doing it, because that is what experimental probability is - the probability that results from conducting an experiment, a posteri. This is different than theoretical probability, which can be computed a priori. For instance, the theoretical probability of rolling a 3 is 1 in 6, or about 0.1667, but the experimental probability changes every time you run the experiment

What is the probability of having a normal child?
The probability is zero! There is no such thing as "normal". Every child (and adult) has some unique characteristics and that makes them not normal - in that respect.
