2. What is the sample proportion of heads in your sample of 40? Report this value to your teacher.
1 answer:
Answer:
Though it may vary, it's going closer to 0.5 as long as we enlarge our sample.
Step-by-step explanation:
1) Since a coin has heads and tails, then a sample proportion of 40 we can simulate it using some applets.
2) Here are the most common outcomes, as long as we continue on flipping coins.
If we continue enlarging our sample (80, 120,160...) the probability goes closer to 0.5
This shows: the theoretical probability goes closer and closer to the experimental probability of heads and tails

Complete question :
John and Kamira are playing a game. John's score (J) and Kamira's score (K) after round 1 are shown on the number line.
The score recorded at the end of the first round is 2.
What could this score represent?
Options :
the sum of John's score and Kamira's score
the difference between John's score and Kamira's score
the absolute value of the difference of John's score and Kamira's score
the sum of the absolute value of John's score and the absolute value of Kamira's score
Answer:
the sum of John's score and Kamira's score
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that :
The score recorded at the end of the round is 2
From the attached number line :
John's score = - 5
Kamira's score = 7
Sum = - 5 + 7 = 2
Difference = - 5 - 7 = - 12
Sum of absolute value = 5 + 7 = 12
absolute value of difference = 12
