What is experimental probability?

Back

Experimental probability is the ratio of the number of times an event occurs to the total number of trials or experiments conducted.

Front

How do you calculate experimental probability?

Back

Experimental probability = (Number of successful outcomes) / (Total number of trials).

How many different lunch combinations can you make with 3 main dishes, 3 sides, and 2 drinks?

Back

You can make 18 different combinations. (3 main dishes) x (3 sides) x (2 drinks) = 18.

Front

What is a sample space in probability?

Back

A sample space is the set of all possible outcomes of a probability experiment.

Front

How do you represent outcomes using a tree diagram?

Back

A tree diagram visually represents all possible outcomes of an event, branching out for each possible choice.

Front

What is the total number of outcomes when flipping a coin twice?

Back

There are 4 possible outcomes: HH, HT, TH, TT.

Front

If you roll a six-sided die and flip a coin, what is the probability of rolling a 4 and getting heads?

Front

What is the difference between theoretical and experimental probability?

Back

Theoretical probability is based on expected outcomes, while experimental probability is based on actual results from experiments.
