Theoretical probability is what, theoretically, the probability <em>should </em>be, regardless of data. Because there are only two options, the probability for getting heads on each toss should be 50%. For the total thirty tosses, theoretically, the coin <em>should</em> land on heads fifteen times, or five per trial, which is determined solely on the number of options.
Experimental probability is what the probability was based on the given data. In the first trial, head was scored 5 times, or 5/10, or 50%. This was repeated in the second and third trials. So, based purely <em>on the data,</em> the probability of the coin landing on heads was also 50%.
I hope this helps!

Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
Collecting terms of the expression, we have ...
x + 0.1x = x(1 +0.1) = 1.1x
In words, adding 10% is the same as multiplying the value by 1.1. Choice A is appropriate.
Answer:
Explanation:
You can convert the percent markup into a multiplicative factor in this way:
Base price: 15,800 . . . (cost to the seller)
Percent mark up: 115% . . . (based on the cost to the seller)
Sale price: 15,800 + 115% of x = 15,800 + 115 × 15,800 /100 =
= 15,800 + 1.15 × 15,800 = 15,800 (2.15) = 33,970
The markup is:
- Markup = price paid by the seller - cost to the seller = 33,970 - 15,800 = 18,170 (notice that this is 115% of 15,800)
And <em>the percent markup based on the sale price is</em>:
- % = (markup / sale price) × 100 = (18,700 / 33,970) × 100 =
= 53.49 %
Rounding to the nearest tenth percent that is 53.5 %.
Given:
Volume of the prism = 60 in³
Breadth = 2.5 in
Height = 4 in.
To find:
The length of the prism.
Solution:
We know that, volume of a prism is
where, l is length, b is breadth and h is height.
Putting V=60, b=2.5 and h=4, we get
Divide both sides by 10.
Therefore, the missing dimension of the prism is 6 in.
