a coin is flipped 100 times and lands on heads 55 times. what is the experimental probability of landing on heads?\na 0.45\nb 0.50\nc 0.60\nd 0.55
Answer
Explanation:
Step1: Recall probability formula
Experimental probability $P(A)=\frac{\text{Number of times event }A\text{ occurs}}{\text{Total number of trials}}$
Step2: Identify values
Number of times heads occurs = 55, total number of trials = 100
Step3: Calculate probability
$P(\text{heads})=\frac{55}{100}=0.55$
Answer:
D. 0.55
