Question 338302:
EXPERIMENTAL (Empirical) PROBABILITY:
Using the same outcome you chose at the bottom of the previous page, conduct the experiment and record the number of times the outcome occurs.
Outcome: ______________
In the table below, “success” means that the above outcome occurred. You will conduct the experiment a total of 100 times.
1.# of successes for this set of 10 trials
2. Cumulative number of successes
3. Proportion of successes based on all trials
4 Decimal estimate of successes based on all trials
First set of 10 trials /10
Second set of 10 trials /20
Third set of 10 trials /30
Fourth set of 10 trials /40
Fifth set of 10 trials /50
Sixth set of 10 trials /60
Seventh set of 10 trials /70
Eighth set of 10 trials /80
Ninth set of 10 trials /90
Tenth set of 10 trials /100
Look at the far right column of the table. How does the empirical probability compare to the theoretical probability as the total number of trials increases? What would happen to the numbers in the far right column if you repeated the experiment 1000 times?
