Question

Type the correct answer in each box. Spell all words correctly. Jason organized three games at a school carnival. Carnival Wheel is a game in which the player spins a wheel with seven equal-sized sections, each of a different color. The player wins if the wheel lands on the violet section. Bingo Ball is a game in which the player picks a ball from a box of ten balls, each of a different color. The player wins if the white ball is picked. Dice to Win is a game in which the player rolls a six-sided die. The player wins if the die lands on 6. Jason kept track of wins and losses for each game in the following table. Type of Game Number of Wins Number of Losses Carnival Wheel (A) 26 149 Bingo Ball (B) 82 118 Dice to Win (C) 39 201 Type "true" or "false" after each statement below. The results from Game A align closely with the theoretical probability of winning that game. The results from Game B align closely with the theoretical probability of winning that game. The results from Game C align closely with the theoretical probability of winning that game.

Answer 1

Statement 1: The results from Game A align closely with the theoretical probability of winning that game. False

Statement 2: The results from Game B align closely with the theoretical probability of winning that game. True

Statement 3: The results from Game C align closely with the theoretical probability of winning that game. false

Statement 1: The results from Game A align closely with the theoretical probability of winning that game.

The theoretical probability of winning Game A is 1/7, since there is one violet section on the wheel. However, the results show that only 26 out of 175 players won, which is a win rate of 0.1486. This is significantly lower than the theoretical probability of winning.

Statement 2: The results from Game B align closely with the theoretical probability of winning that game.

The theoretical probability of winning Game B is 1/10, since there is one white ball in the box. The results show that 82 out of 200 players won, which is a win rate of 0.41. This is close to the theoretical probability of winning.

Statement 3: The results from Game C align closely with the theoretical probability of winning that game.

The theoretical probability of winning Game C is 1/6, since there is one side of the die that shows 6. The results show that only 39 out of 240 players won, which is a win rate of 0.1625. This is significantly lower than the theoretical probability of winning.

Overall, the results from Game B align most closely with the theoretical probability of winning.
