Answer:
1) Wrong statement:
The difference between the experimental and theoretical probability is 1/10
Correct statement:
The difference between the experimental and theoretical probability is 3/200
2) Wrong statement:
The difference between the experimental and theoretical probability is 1/10
Correct statement:
The difference between the experimental and theoretical probability is 3/200
Step-by-step explanation:
N(Pennies) = 6
N(Nickels) = 8
N(Dimes) = 4
N(quarters) = 7
N(total) = 6 + 8 + 4 + 7
N(total) = 25
1) The theoretical probability of selecting a dime = 4/25
The experimental probability of selecting a dime = 30/150 = 1/5
B is wrong because theoretical probability is 4/25, not 9/50
Wrong statement:
The theoretical probability of selecting a dime is
Correct statement:
The theoretical probability of selecting a dime is 4/25
2) The experimental probability of selecting a penny = 45/200 = 9/40
The theoretical probability of selecting a penny = 6/25
Difference between experimental and theoretical probability = 6/25 - 9/40
Difference between experimental and theoretical probability = 3/200
Wrong statement:
The difference between the experimental and theoretical probability is 1/10
Correct statement:
The difference between the experimental and theoretical probability is 3/200
