Question

Jared gets 10 heads when flipping a weighted coin 12 times. Based on experimental probability, how many of the next six flip should Jared expect to come up heads?

Answer 1

5

Explanation:

Experimental probability = number of tunes an event occurred / total number of trials

Experimental probability of getting head :

10 /12 = 0.833333

Expected number of heads from next 6 flips :

Experimental probability = expected number of heads / number of trials

0.833333 = x / 6

0.83333 * 6 = 5

5 times
