Ronaldo rolled a number cube 50 times. During these trials he rolled the number 5 a total of 7 times. Based on these trials, what is the probability of rolling a 5? Does this represent a theoretical or experimental probability? Explain.

Respuesta :

The probability of rolling a 5 is still 1/6, and this is an example of experimental probability. The result of trials not being the same as theoretical results does not change the theoretical probability. The chance of rolling a certain number on a perfect die will always be 1/6.

Answer:[tex]\frac{1}{6}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of rolling a 5 is [tex]\frac{1}{6}[/tex] because rolling a die is independent of previous results .It can show any number with equal Probability i.e. [tex]\frac{1}{6}[/tex]

The above case is an example of Experimental probability but the probability is calculated the same way of favorable outcome to the total outcome.
