You throw 2 sticks 15 times and record the results. use the table to find the experimental probability of the event outcomes frequency table:

outcomes frequency
2 blue 4
2 pink 3
1 blue, 1 pink 8

1.) tossing 2 blue
2.) tossing 1 blue 1 pink
3.) not tossing all blue

Final answer:

To find the experimental probability, use the frequency table to determine the frequency of the desired outcomes and divide it by the total number of trials.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the experimental probability for the given outcomes, we need to use the frequency table. Let's look at each case:

  1. Tossing 2 blue: The frequency for this outcome is 4, so the experimental probability is 4/15.
  2. Tossing 1 blue 1 pink: The frequency for this outcome is 8, so the experimental probability is 8/15.
  3. Not tossing all blue: The frequency for this outcome is 15 - 4 = 11, so the experimental probability is 11/15.
