This video tutorial covers experimental probability, explaining key terms like trial, outcome, and event. It introduces simulations as models for experiments, using examples like NASA's Mars rover. A card simulation demonstrates predicting soccer assists, while a spinner experiment illustrates finding probabilities. The video also covers converting fractions to decimals and percentages, concluding with a summary and preview of compound events.

What is a trial in the context of experimental probability?

• A set of all possible outcomes

• Each observation of an experiment

• The likelihood of an event happening

• A model of an experiment

Which of the following best describes an event?

• A set of one or more outcomes

• A single outcome of a trial

• The opposite of an outcome

• The total number of trials

How is experimental probability calculated?

• By using a theoretical model

• By dividing the number of favorable outcomes by the total number of possible outcomes

• By comparing the number of times an event occurs to the total number of trials

• By simulating the event multiple times

What is the purpose of a simulation in probability?

• To model an experiment that is difficult to perform

• To perform an experiment in real life

• To create a theoretical model

• To calculate the exact probability of an event

In the card simulation example, what do the black cards represent?

• No assist

• An assist

• A goal

• A penalty

Why is it important to shuffle the deck in the card simulation?

• To ensure each draw is random

• To reduce the number of outcomes

• To increase the number of trials

• To make the simulation faster

What is the total number of sections on the spinner used in the example?

• Four

• Five

• Two

• Three

How do you convert a fraction to a decimal?

• Multiply the numerator by 100

• Divide the numerator by the denominator

• Add the numerator and denominator

• Subtract the denominator from the numerator

What is the key takeaway about experimental probability?

• It does not involve any calculations

• It requires only one trial

• It is always exact

• It is found by repeating experiments and recording outcomes
