Seven different names were put into a hat. A name chosen 100 times. And the name Michael is chosen 9 times. What is experimental

probability of the name Michael being chosen? What is the theoretical probability of the name Michael being chosen? Use the pencil and paper. Explain how each probability would change if the number of names in the hat were different.

Answer:

Experimental probability = 9 / 100

Theoretical probability = 1/7

Step-by-step explanation:

The experimental probability of an event is written as :

P = number of times event occur / total number of trials

Experimental probability is based on the outcome of an experiment that has taken place.

Theoretical probability is based on expected outcome of an event.

P = number of expected or required outcomes / total possible outcomes

Experimental probability of choosing the name Michael is :

Number of times Michael is chosen / number of trials

Experimental probability = 9 / 100 = 0.09

Theoretical probability of choosing michael:

Number of names in hat = 7

Number of names called Michael in hat = required outcome = 1

P = 1 / 7

If the number of names in hat was different from 7, then the theoretical probability will change.

Also, if the number of times a name was chosen was different from 100, then number of trials will also change and hence, the experimental probability.

tigry1 [53]

Step-by-step explanation:

(9) {}^{2}   = (5) {}^{2}  + (x) {}^{2}  \\ 81 = 25 +  {x}^{2}  \\  {x}^{2}  = 56 \\ x = 2 \sqrt{14}  = 7.4

It is determined that 1/6 of the students in 6th grade choose Art as their elective. If there are 384 students in 6th grade, how

320 students. Because you have to divide 384 by 6 which will give you 64 which is the number for the students that chose art and then subtract that from the total students which are 384 and you'll get 320 as your answer for the student that didn't pick art.
