 1. How many times did it land facing up (Heads)? 7 times

2. What is the ratio of the number of flips that resulted heads to the total number of flips?

Note: The ratio is the experimental probability of getting a head if the same coin is flipped 15 times.

𝑛𝑢𝑚𝑏𝑒𝑟 𝑜𝑓 𝑡𝑖𝑚𝑒𝑠 𝑡ℎ𝑒 ℎ𝑒𝑎𝑑𝑠 𝑜𝑐𝑐𝑢𝑟𝑠

=0.47

3. What is the theoretical probability of getting a head when a fair coin is flipped?

- there has ½ favorable outcome in getting the head when a fair coin flip
- and 2 possible in flipping a head and a tail

𝑇ℎ𝑒𝑜𝑟𝑒𝑡𝑖𝑐𝑎𝑙 𝑃𝑟𝑜𝑏𝑎𝑏𝑖𝑙𝑖𝑡𝑦 = 𝑡𝑜𝑡𝑎𝑙 𝑛𝑢𝑚𝑏𝑒𝑟 𝑜𝑓 𝑝𝑜𝑠𝑠𝑖𝑏𝑙𝑒 𝑜𝑢𝑡𝑐𝑜𝑚𝑒𝑠

0.5
= 2
=0.25

4. Did the experimental probability tally with the theoretical probability? Explain your answer.

In this problem, the experimental probability does not match the theoretical probability because
the experimental tally is 0.47, while the theoretical tally is 0.25. also inline with this the tally of
experimental is certain than to the theoretical probability.

II. Think of these! (30 points)

Mr. Arriola, a quality control manager of a car manufacturing factory, takes a sample of 30 cars. He finds that one car
has a break defect. Given this, what is the probability that a car taken at random from the samples will not be
defective? Explain.

The probability of the car being chosen at random from non-defective samples is 1/29. This is supported
by the fact that there are 30 cars in the study and one of them has one brake defect.

Based on the computed probability, will you suggest to Mr. Arriola not to inspect all cars that were not considered as
sample? Why or why not?

No, in this line of business, the customer's protection must come first. Mr.Arriola must continue to
inspect not only the sample car but also the other cars that have a strategic effect on the market's
growth

 Why do some people gamble in unfair games, say text raffles, roulette, or lotto, even if they know that their chance
of winning is very small?

The willingness of a person to pursue a reward despite the fact that he or she has a small chance of
winning. Indeed, it was a dangerous game in which the target was overpowered. Their investment was
the simple money of their lofty goals.
