Indicate whether classical, empirical, or subjective probability should be used to determine each of the following probabilities.
a) The probability that six coins will land on heads .
b)The probability of there being at least 32.1 inches of rainfall next year in a certain country.
c)The probability that a certain football team will win the trophy.
d)The probability that the ticket 9 1 7 2 3 will win the lottery.
a) "The probability that six coins will land on heads"
is an example of which type of probability?
Classical
Empirical
Subjective
b)"The probability of there being at least 32.1 inches of rainfall next year in a certain country"
is an example of which type of probability?
Subjective
Classical
Empirical
Classical probability is a simple form of probability that has equal odds of something happening. For example,Rolling a fair die.
Subjective probability is based on your beliefs. For example, you might “feel” a lucky streak coming on
Empirical probability is based on experiments. You physically perform experiments and calculate the odds from your results.
a) "The probability that six coins will land on heads"
is an example of which type of probability?
Ans- Subjective Probability (this is about belief and is not equally likely)
b)The probability of there being at least 32.1 inches of rainfall next year in a certain country.
Ans- Empirical Probability (Based on experiment)
c)The probability that a certain football team will win the trophy.
Ans- Subjective Probability (This is belief without using data)
d)The probability that the ticket 9 1 7 2 3 will win the lottery.
Ans- Subjective Probability (Belief)
