|
What is Theoretical never changes, experimental is always changing and based on data.
Explain the difference between theoretical and experimental probability.
|
What is 160
A skateboard company makes a random check of its skateboards. Out of 150 skateboards, 15 are defective. If the trend continues, predict the number of defective skateboards in a batch of 1,600.
|
What is 27
If a restaurant offers 3 drinks, 3 main dishes and 3 desserts, what is the sample space?
|
What is independent has the same denominator and does not rely on the probability of another event. Dependent relies on the probability of another event and the denominator changes.
