PLZ HELP :(
so
you know what experimental probability is?
it is not like favorable outcomes/ total #
i think its the ratio of a time of an event
Its result/total
hmmm
@jim_thompson5910
how many times was silver pulled out?
11
how many times did we pull out any coin?
70
so the experimental probability of pulling out silver is 11/70
what is the theoretical probability of pulling out silver?
hint: look at the first column
6.36?
theoretical probability of pulling out silver = 1/10 since we have 1 actual silver coin out of 10 coins total
ohh
the idea is this: with a lot of trials, the experimental probability should get closer and closer to the theoretical probability
11/70 isn't equal to 1/10, but if you keep doing more trials, the experimental probability should get closer and closer to the theoretical probability
Are we doing it by the questions from problem??
@jim_thompson5910 From the letter A question it says express it as a percent LZ HELP
Theoretical probability of drawing the silver coin is 1/10. You need a percentage, however, which means it has to be out of one hundred. So add a zero to each number. 1/10 become 10/100, which means you have 10% chance of drawing the silver coin. I haven't done this in a while and I honestly am not really sure this is correct. Using logic, though, it appears correct. I hope you get it right?
