Question

EXPLAIN the difference between theoretical and experimental probability. Use an example.

Answer 1

ANSWER BELOW:-

Step-by-step explanation:

Theoretical probability describes how likely an event is to occur. We know that a coin is equally likely to land heads or tails, so the theoretical probability of getting heads is 1/2. Experimental probability describes how frequently an event actually occurred in an experiment.

EXAMPLE-

Theoretical probability:

For instance, since a flipped coin has two sides and each side is equally likely to land up, the theoretical probability of landing heads (or tails) is exactly 1 out of 2.

Experimental probability:-

For example, the probability of getting a head if you flip a coin is ½, since only 2 things could happen (a head or a tail) and each one has an equal chance of occurring.
