What is experimental probability? Probability involves predicting future events based on the following… Experimental Probability
Example You attempt 16 free throws in a basketball game. Your results are shown. What is the experimental probability of making a free throw
Example A bicycle company checks a random sample of bikes. The table shows the results. Predict the number of defective bikes in a batch 1,300.
Example Find the experimental probability that 2 of 3 children in a family are girls. Assume that girls and boys are equally likely. Simulate the problem by tossing three coins. Let heads represent a girl. Let tails represent a boy.
