Answer:

The experimental probability is the same as the theoretical probability.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given data is:

color            observed frequency               relative frequency

Red                            15                                          3/10

Blue                           12                                          6/25

Green                         8                                           4/25

Yellow                        10                                          1/5

Purple                         5                                           1/10

The experiment was repeated 50 numbers of times.

Solution:

Theoretical probability is basically what is expected to happen without experimenting and experimental probability is what actually happens as a   results of an experiment.

Theoretical probability =  favorable outcomes / all possible outcomes

Experimental probability = no. of times outcome occurs / no. of times

                                                                                      experiment is performed The experimental probability  and theoretical probability are same i.e. 1/5

This can be seen from the table:

Experimental probability = 1/5

As the experiment is performed 50 times and the outcome (yellow tile) occurs 10 times so using the formula of experimental probability:

10/50 = 1/5

Now as given, there are 5 number of tiles (red,blue,green,yellow,purple) so number of possible outcomes is 5. Yellow tile among these 5 tiles is 1. So the favorable outcomes is 1. So looking at the given formula of theoretical probability:

1/5

So

experimental probability = 1/5

theoretical probability = 1/5

Hence the experimental probability is the same as the theoretical probability.

Make bottom numbers same

convert to improper fraction


1 and 5/6=1+5/6=6/6+5/6=11/6

1/2 and 11/6
2 times 3=6
1/2 times 3/3=3/6

1/2+11/6=3/6+11/6=(4+11)/6=14/6

8.

2 terms on left side, 3 on right side

9.

All variables count as coefficients,  so they’d be 8m, k, and -16k

10.

The constants are just numbers on their own, or without a variable next to it. Here it’d be 10 and -4
