Concept explainers
To find whether there is any difference in the experimental probability and the theoretical probability.
Answer to Problem 5GCE
Yes.
Explanation of Solution
Given:
Robby wins
Calculation:
The following is the simulation of Robby’s outcome. When
Outcome | 0 | 1 | 2 |
Frequency | 2 | 3 | 4 |
Yes, there is the difference in the experimental probability computation generated using simulation and the probability computed using the formula (theoretical probability).
The difference is because the experimental probability is based on real time outcomes what we got but the theoretical probability assumes is based on guessed outcome that can be.
