Question

A coin is tossed times and comes up heads times. Use the Empirical Method to approximate the probability that the coin comes up heads. Round your answer to four decimal places as necessary.

Answer 1

`P(head) = 0.5600`

Explanation:

Given

`n = 500` -- number of toss

`head = 280` --- outcomes of head

Empirical probability of head

This is calculated as:

`P(head) = (n(head))/(n)`

`P(head) = (280)/(500)`

`P(head) = 0.5600`
