What is the formula for calculating empirical probability?
Think of what you need to divide to find probability.
If you toss a coin 10 times and get 6 heads, what is the empirical probability of getting heads?
Divide the number of heads by the number of tosses.
What does empirical probability rely on?
Recall what kind of data we use to calculate empirical probabilities.
True or False: The empirical probability is always equal to the theoretical probability.
Think about how real-life outcomes might change the probabilities.
In an experiment, a spinner with 4 equal sections is spun 100 times, resulting in 30, 30, 20, and 20 outcomes over four colors. What is the empirical probability for each color?
Count the favorable outcomes per color and divide by total outcomes.
If a coin is tossed 10,000 times with heads appearing 5,200 times, calculate the empirical probability and discuss how it compares to the theoretical probability.
Consider the nature of randomness and potential biases.
