will medal! plz help! A number cube with the numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 is rolled 1000 times. About how many times would it be expected that a number greater than 1 is rolled?

OpenStudy (xguardians):

5/6 (Chance of being greater than or equal) * 1000 = ???? That's the setup.

OpenStudy (rebeccapink6398):

????????

OpenStudy (xguardians):

Use a calculator to solve for yourself.

OpenStudy (rebeccapink6398):

I don't know what u just said

OpenStudy (amistre64):

sometimes its easier to determine the complement and subtract if from 1

OpenStudy (rebeccapink6398):

im so lost!!! I have no idea what u both just said o.0

OpenStudy (xguardians):

5/6 (Chance of being greater than or equal) * 1000 (Amount of Rolls) = 833 Times. That's the setup.

OpenStudy (amistre64):

you are taking a class on stats and/or probability right?

OpenStudy (xguardians):

Hence the answer would be 833 times you would expect to roll greater then 1.

OpenStudy (rebeccapink6398):

no its a semester text...

OpenStudy (rebeccapink6398):

thxxx @xGuardians

OpenStudy (rebeccapink6398):

no it is asking the rolls

OpenStudy (amistre64):

yeah, i just read that :/ these old eyes mine lol

OpenStudy (xguardians):

Goodluck with your semester text!

OpenStudy (rebeccapink6398):

lol :P OMG! but the next question is

OpenStudy (rebeccapink6398):

A spinner has four congruent sections numbered 1, 2, 3, 4. Celinda made 50 spins of this spinner and recorded the outcomes in this table. Outcome Number 1 10 2 13 3 12 4 15 What is the theoretical probability of the spinner stopping on 4? What is the experimental probability of the spinner stopping on 4? A. Theoretical - 25% Experimental - 25% B. Theoretical - 30% Experimental - 25% C. Theoretical - 15% Experimental - 25% D. Theoretical - 25% Experimental - 30%

OpenStudy (rebeccapink6398):

could you please help me?

OpenStudy (xguardians):

Theoretical is based off facts. Experimental is based off what you got in the information. I'll try to walk you through on this one :)
