Toss a penny, and record whether it comes up heads or tails. Flip the penny in a shoebox to prevent it from rolling away What are your chances for tossing a head What are your chances for tossing a tail Toss the penny 10 times and record the number of times it comes up heads and the number of times it comes up tails: How many times did you expect to get heads? How many times did you expect to get tails? Calculate and record the deviation observed from what you expected using the following formula The more the experimental results deviate from the expected results, the more the deviation
The chance for both head and Tail will be 50%
5 times heads and 5 times tails
i have another one : How many of each color were left after trial 4? If each square represented an individual in a population of beetles, what do you think the construction paper color represented? Did you end up with an equal amount of squares for each color? If not, why do you think some colors had more squares left than others? What did picking up squares represent? What did adding squares represent? How does this activity simulate natural selection?
Probability of an outcome = \(\huge\frac{Number~of~favourable~Outcome}{Number~of~total~outcome}\)
You probably didn't notice, but you posted your \(\large\sf\color{blue}{\underline{\href{ /study#/groups/mathematics}{Mathematics }}}\) question in the Biology section. Next time when you ask a question, check if you're in the right section :)
