1. Warm-up: Do the following probability statements represent Theoretical probability or Experimental probability? Justify your decision.
d) A college professor uses advanced probability concepts to explain why you have a 62.5% chance of receiving all 3 ponies if you visit McBurger's 5 times.
2. Pass back Algebra Tiles/ Percent Quiz
4. Lesson 5.2.3 Introduction to Compound Events
a) Jason notices that a number cube has 6 sides. 3 of the sides are odd, and 3 are even. Therefore, he declares that P(odd) = 50%
b) Paola is randomly picking colored blocks from a bag, recording the color, and replacing it in the bag. After 50 trials, she has chosen 10 red blocks. She concludes P(red) = 10/50 or 1/5
c) Georgia wants to play the Prime number game. (remember, our warm-up from yesterday?) She uses a random number generator 10 times and records the results. 6 of those results are prime, so she decides to be the prime number player because it appears more likely.
d) A college professor uses advanced probability concepts to explain why you have a 62.5% chance of receiving all 3 ponies if you visit McBurger's 5 times.
2. Pass back Algebra Tiles/ Percent Quiz
