Experimental Probability 10-2 In experimental probability, the likelihood of an event is estimated by repeating an experiment many times and observing the number of times the event happens. That number is divided by the total number of trials. The more the experiment is repeated, the more accurate the estimate is likely to be. number of times the event occurs total number of trials probability Course 3
Experimental Probability 10-2 number of red marbles drawn 15 50 = total number of marbles drawn Course 3 Additional Example 1A: Estimating the Probability of an Event A marble is randomly drawn out of a bag and then replaced. The table shows the results after fifty draws. Estimate the probability of drawing a red marble. probability The probability of drawing a red marble is about 0.3, or 30%.
Experimental Probability 10-2 number of green marbles drawn 12 50 = total number of marbles drawn Course 3 Additional Example 1B: Estimating the Probability of an Event A marble is randomly drawn out of a bag and then replaced. The table shows the results after fifty draws. Estimate the probability of drawing a green marble. probability The probability of drawing a green marble is about 0.24, or 24%.
Experimental Probability 10-2 number of yellow marbles drawn 23 50 = total number of marbles drawn Course 3 Additional Example 1C: Estimating the Probability of an Event A marble is randomly drawn out of a bag and then replaced. The table shows the results after fifty draws. Estimate the probability of drawing a yellow marble. probability The probability of drawing a yellow marble is about 0.46, or 46%.
