What is the key feature of a probability experiment?

Testing what happens by repeating actions

On a fair six-sided dice, what is the probability of rolling any single number?

16\frac{1}{6}

How can you find probabilities when equipment is biased?

Do experiments to test it

A coin is flipped 80 times and lands on heads 52 times. What is the relative frequency of heads?

0.650.65

What can you use relative frequency for?

To estimate the probability of a result

Why is repeating an experiment many times important?

It makes probability estimates more accurate

A fair spinner has 6 sides. Which relative frequency suggests it might be biased?

0.410.41 for one number

If probability of rolling 5 or 6 is 13\frac{1}{3} and you roll 180 times, what's the expected frequency?

6060

When should you use frequency trees?

For experiments with two or more steps

A biased dice showed relative frequency 0.410.41 for 3. In 500 rolls, how many 3s are expected?

205205
