Predicting Experimental Probability Challenges

This video tutorial explains experimental probability, contrasting it with theoretical probability. It covers calculating probabilities for simple and compound events using frequency tables and proportions. The tutorial demonstrates predicting outcomes based on experimental data, emphasizing the use of proportions to estimate future occurrences.

What is the main focus of this video?

• Calculating mean and median

• Predicting experimental probability

• Understanding permutations

• Predicting theoretical probability

What does experimental probability rely on?

• Real data

• Future predictions

• Random guesses

• Hypothetical outcomes

In the frequency table, how many times was the number 5 rolled?

• 10 times

• 8 times

• 6 times

• 4 times

How many total rolls were recorded in the frequency table?

• 26

• 24

• 30

• 20

What is the first step in predicting the number of times a 5 would be rolled in 200 trials?

• Find the experimental probability

• Calculate the theoretical probability

• Use a different frequency table

• Guess the number of times

What is the experimental probability of rolling a 5 based on the given data?

• 8 out of 30

• 8 out of 24

• 8 out of 20

• 8 out of 26

How many times would a 5 be rolled in 200 trials based on the experimental probability?

• 50 times

• 64 times

• 62 times

• 60 times

What makes an event compound?

• It involves more than one outcome

• It involves only one outcome

• It is based on theoretical probability

• It does not use a frequency table

How many times did the spinner land on red in the compound event example?

• 5 times

• 7 times

• 10 times

• 8 times

Approximately how many times would the compound event (spinning B and then red) occur in 300 trials?

• 8.3 times

• 11.3 times

• 9.3 times

• 10.3 times
