Question

Play Your Cards Right Obtain a standard deck of 52 playing cards. Mix them well and count out 25 cards WITHOUT LOOKING AT THEM. Put aside the remaining cards. You are going to perform an experiment to estimate the probablity of drawing a club, a diamond, a heart, and a spade from your deck of 25 cards. A. Mix the 25 cards well Draw one card. Record its occurrence in the approprlate box. below B. Replace the card and shuffle the deck of 25 cards C. Draw another card and record its sult. D. Repeat the above steps until you have recorded a total of 25 draws Total Hearts Spades Diamonds Clubs Use your data to answer the following questions 1. What is your estimate of the probability of drawing a club from the deck of 25 cards? 2. What is your estimate of the probability of drawing a diamond from the deck of 25 cards? 3 What is your estimate of the probability of drawing a heart from the deck of 25 cards? 4. What is your estimate of the probability of drawing a spade from the deck of 25 cards? 5. Now look at your 25 cards. Count and record the number of cards in each suit. Clubs Diamonds Hearts Totral What is the theoretical probability of obtaining a club, a diamond, a heart, and a spade? the experiment? would the estimated probabilities compare with the theoretical probabilities then? 6. 7. How do these theoretical probablities compare with the estimated probabilities obtained in B. Suppose you had recorded a total of 2.500 draws (instead of 25) in your experiment. How
