Graphing Outcomes Data

The video tutorial introduces probability through experiments with candy and socks. It explains how to calculate probabilities based on the number of items and demonstrates this with a candy bowl experiment. The teacher conducts 10 picks, showing how yellow candies have the highest probability of being picked. A similar experiment is done with socks, highlighting how probabilities change when items are not replaced. The video concludes by encouraging students to conduct their own experiments with various objects.

What is the probability of picking a yellow candy from the bowl?

• 2 out of 30

• 6 out of 30

• 9 out of 30

• 13 out of 30

In the candy experiment, how many times was the yellow candy picked out of 10?

• 7 times

How many times were the black socks picked in the sock experiment?

• 4 times

• 1 time

• 2 times

If a black pair of socks is picked and not returned, what is the new probability of picking another black pair?

• 2 out of 7

• 3 out of 7

• 4 out of 7
