Document Summary

Week 6 (i got my weeks off ok) Empirical probabilities- proportion of times an event with a random outcome happens out of so many tires. *** must repeat experiment at least 100 times to get accurate results. Law of large numbers- if an experiment with a random outcome is repeated a large number of times, the empirical probability is likely to be close to the true (theoretical) probability. The larger the number of repetitions, the closer together the probabilities are likely to be.
