Question

You flip a coin 12 times. It lands on tails 9 times. What is the experimental probability of landing on heads?

Answer 1

Is it multiple choice?

Answer 2

no lol

Answer 3

Oomf, ok, You're going to need a second opinion on this because I'm really bad at this, but I think the answer should be 3/12

Answer 4

since she flipped the coin 12 times and it landed on tails 9 times

Answer 5

kk lol That's what I thought... idk it just seemed too simple to figure it out that way. lol

Answer 6

Yeah, I would def get a second opinion tho. lmao

Answer 7

When you flip a coin scientifically the original side up has a 51% chance of lading on top again. The probability is uneven because of that.

Answer 8

great shadow's here lmao, he can help.

Answer 9

Xd yep

Answer 10

Yeah experimental probability doesn’t care about the actual probability, just the actual outcomes that happened within the experimental.

Answer 11

So 3/12 as opposed to 1/2

Answer 12

okay so it is 3/12?

Answer 13

That makes a lot of sense because technically whatever side the coin lands on is random!

Answer 14

So they want the sample space? @Shadow

Answer 15

ok! great! thank you! Thank you all!
