Nikke has a set of 5 cards numbered 1 through 5. She shuffles the cards at random she repeats the process several times and records the results in the table below based on her results what is the experimental probability of choosing a 1?

Final answer:

To calculate the experimental probability of drawing a '1', count the number of times '1' was drawn and divide by the total number of draws; use randInt to simulate this for further trials.

Step-by-step explanation:

The experimental probability of choosing a '1' from Nikke's set of cards is found by dividing the number of times she draws a '1' by the total number of card draws. Assuming the table mentioned contains the recorded results of her shuffles and subsequent draws, you would count the number of times a '1' appears in her results and then divide by the total number of draws. If Nikke has recorded this process 10 times, for example, and drew the '1' card 3 times, the experimental probability would be calculated as 3/10 = 0.3 or 30%.

To simulate this using a programmable calculator with a randInt function for a binomial distribution, you would generate random integers between 1 and 5, representing each card number, and repeat this 10 times. Each time a '1' is generated would count as a 'success'. The total number of successes after 10 trials would give you an experimental probability based on the simulation.
