Simulation and experimental probability

Question 1

What is experimental probability

Answer 1

Estimating the number of times something will happen

Question 2

How do you do experimental probability

Answer 2

Number of trials x probability of it happening

Question 3

If a question says “a spinner can land on blue white and red and the probability it will land on white is 0.25 and the probability of it landing on red is 0.3, what is the probability of it landing on blue” How do you work out the probability it will land on blue

Answer 3

0.3 + 0.25 = 0.55

1- 0.55 = 0.45

Question 4

What is simulation and how do you introduce randomness to stimulation

Answer 4

Quick
Cheap
Easily altered
Repeatable

Coins
Dice
Random numbers (from your calculator)
