Question

Bryce randomly chooses a card from a standard deck of 52 containing 13 of each suit. He records the suit of each card in the tally chart at the right.What are the experimental probabilities that Bryce chooses each suit? How do these compare to the theoretical probabilities?
clubs 6
diamonds 8
hearts 8
spades 10

Answer 1

Answer:

52 cards  / 4 suits  = 13 cards of each suit.

Theoretically picking a heart would be 13/52 = 1/4 probability.

Experimentally she picked 15 hearts out of 80 total tries. for a 15/80 = 3/16 probability, which is less than the theoretical probability.

1/4 - 3/16 = 1/16

The answer is A.

Step-by-step explanation:

The right answer is A - The theoretical probability of choosing a heart is StartFraction 1 over 16 EndFraction greater than the experimental probability of choosing a heart
