The video tutorial explores James's year-long data collection on weather conditions and train punctuality. It delves into calculating experimental probabilities to determine if train delays are independent of snowy weather. The analysis shows a higher probability of delays on snowy days, suggesting dependence between these events.

What was James interested in tracking over the year?

• The accuracy of weather forecasts

• The relationship between weather conditions and train delays

• The number of passengers on the train

• The speed of the train during different weather conditions

How many sunny days were recorded in the year?

• 167 days

• 20 days

• 170 days

• 3 days

• They may not accurately reflect theoretical probabilities

• They are too difficult to calculate

• They are always inaccurate

What concept is crucial to understanding the relationship between two variables?

• Statistical analysis

• Theoretical probability

• Experimental probability
