Question
Analysis:
1. Does the theoretical probability match the empirical probability? Explain why this is or whether
this poses a problem.
2. Fill in the blank: The Law of Large Numbers tells us that the empirical probability approaches the
theoretical probability when
3. Explain how to change the Procedure for the Empirical Probability so that the empirical
probability more closely resembles the theoretical probability.
4. Implement the change you proposed in the previous problem. Explain the results of this
implementation below. (Include screenshots from StatCrunch.)
Conclusion:
In conclusion, this assignment demonstrates the difference between theoretical and empirical
probabilities. Theoretical probabilities are calculated based on the number of ways an event can occur
divided by the total number of possible outcomes. Empirical probabilities are calculated based on the
number of times an event actually occurs. By comparing the two, we can see how closely the outcomes of
an experiment match the expected probabilities.
