abdul flips a weighted coin 64 times and gets 16 tails. based on experimental probability, how many of the next 40 flips should abdul expect to come up tails? tails

Answer

Answer:

10

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate experimental probability

The experimental probability $P$ of getting tails is the number of tails divided by the total number of flips. So $P=\frac{16}{64}=\frac{1}{4}$.

Step2: Predict number of tails

To find the expected number of tails in 40 flips, we multiply the experimental - probability by the number of flips. Let $x$ be the expected number of tails. Then $x = P\times40=\frac{1}{4}\times40 = 10$.
