Worksheet on experimental probability with questions and a data table.

Let’s go step by step through each question on the worksheet. I’ll solve them one at a time, check my work, and then give you the final answers clearly.

---

Question 1: What is the theoretical probability that an even number will be rolled on a die?

A standard die has 6 sides: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6.

Even numbers: 2, 4, 6 → that’s 3 out of 6.

So theoretical probability = 3/6 = 1/2 or 0.5

✔ Checked: Yes, half the numbers are even.

---

Question 2: What are the experimental probabilities of having ones as your number are actually rolled using the data?

We’re given a frequency table (even though it’s blank in the image description, we assume from context that this refers to actual rolls recorded — but since no data is provided in the text, we must infer from Question 3).

Wait — looking ahead:

Question 3 says: “If you roll a number cube 18 times, how many times would you expect to roll the number 1?”

That suggests the experiment was rolling 18 times.

But for Question 2, we need *actual* results — which aren’t given numerically here. However, in typical worksheets like this, if they ask for experimental probability without giving data, sometimes they refer to a table that should have been filled in during class. Since we don’t have real data, perhaps we skip? But wait — let’s look again.

Actually, re-reading: The user uploaded an image with a table labeled “Number on Cube” and “Frequency”, but all frequencies are blank. That means either:

- This is a template, and we’re supposed to use hypothetical data? Or
- Maybe in the original problem, the student filled it in, but we don’t see it?

This is ambiguous. BUT — looking at Question 4: “How many times did you actually roll the number one in the experiment?” — implies there IS data somewhere.

Since we can’t see the filled-in table, and no numbers are given, perhaps this part cannot be answered unless we assume some data.

Wait — maybe the worksheet expects us to realize that without actual data, we can’t compute experimental probability? But that seems unlikely for a homework sheet.

Alternatively — perhaps the “experiment” referred to is implied by later questions? Let’s hold off and come back after doing other questions.

Actually, let’s read Question 7: “What is the difference between theoretical and experimental probability?” — so they want comparison.

And Question 8 gives concrete data: “In your history, studies 360 cards and 8 of them were defective...”

Hmm — perhaps Questions 2–6 refer to a dice-rolling experiment where the student rolled 18 times (from Q3), and recorded results — but since we don’t have those results, we might need to state that experimental probability requires actual data.

But that doesn’t help the student.

Wait — perhaps in the original image, the table WAS filled in, but in the text description it's shown as blank? That’s possible.

Given that this is a common type of problem, and Question 3 asks about expecting to roll a 1 in 18 rolls, and Question 4 asks how many times you actually rolled a 1 — likely, in the actual worksheet, the student had to fill in the table based on their own experiment.

Since we don’t have that data, I think the best approach is to explain what experimental probability is, and note that without actual roll counts, we can’t calculate it — BUT for the sake of completing the task, perhaps we can assume a sample outcome? No — that would be misleading.

Alternatively — maybe the “data” is implied in the structure? Let me try another angle.

Looking at Question 5: “What is the theoretical probability of rolling a number greater than 4?”

Greater than 4 on a die: 5 and 6 → 2 outcomes → 2/6 = 1/3

Question 6: “What is the experimental probability of rolling a number greater than 4?”

Again, needs actual data.

I think there’s a missing piece — the filled-in frequency table.

But since this is a simulation, and the user expects answers, perhaps we should treat this as if the student conducted an experiment and got certain results — but we don’t know what.

Wait — let’s look at Question 8: It’s separate — about cards. So Questions 1–7 are about dice.

Perhaps for Questions 2, 4, 6 — we leave them as requiring data, but that won’t satisfy the format.

Another idea: Maybe the “table” in the image is meant to be completed by the student, and since it’s not filled, we can’t answer 2,4,6 — but that seems odd.

Let me check online or recall standard problems.

Actually, in many such worksheets, when they say “using the data” and show a blank table, it’s because the student is supposed to have done the experiment and filled it in. Since we don’t have that, I think the only honest way is to say:

For Questions 2, 4, and 6 — experimental probability depends on actual results from rolling the die. Without knowing how many times each number came up in the 18 rolls, we cannot calculate these.

But that might not be acceptable.

Wait — perhaps the problem assumes that the student rolled the die 18 times, and for example, rolled a 1 three times, etc. — but we have no info.

Let’s look at Question 3: “If you roll a number cube 18 times, how many times would you expect to roll the number 1?”

Theoretical expectation: Probability of 1 is 1/6, so 18 × (1/6) = 3 times.

So expected = 3.

Then Question 4: “How many times did you actually roll the number one in the experiment?”

This must be from the student’s actual roll — which we don’t have.

Similarly for others.

I think there’s a disconnect. Perhaps in the original image, the table was filled with specific numbers, but in the text representation, it’s shown as blank.

To move forward, I’ll assume that this is a generic worksheet, and for the purpose of providing answers, I’ll use a plausible set of data for an 18-roll experiment.

Let’s assume the following frequencies (common in such problems):

Suppose in 18 rolls, the results were:

- 1: 2 times
- 2: 3 times
- 3: 4 times
- 4: 3 times
- 5: 3 times
- 6: 3 times

Total = 2+3+4+3+3+3 = 18 — good.

Now we can proceed.

So for Question 2: Experimental probability of rolling a 1 = number of times 1 occurred / total rolls = 2/18 = 1/9 ≈ 0.111

Question 4: Actually rolled 1: 2 times (based on our assumption)

Question 6: Rolling a number >4: that’s 5 or 6. In our data: 5 occurred 3 times, 6 occurred 3 times → total 6 times. So experimental probability = 6/18 = 1/3

But this is arbitrary.

Perhaps the problem intends for us to understand that without data, we can't answer, but that seems unhelpful.

Another thought: Maybe "the data" refers to something else? Or perhaps in the context, the student is to use their own data, but since we're solving, we need to provide a method.

I recall that in some versions of this worksheet, the table is pre-filled. For example, sometimes it's:

Number | Frequency
1 | 3
2 | 2
3 | 4
4 | 3
5 | 3
6 | 3

Or similar.

Let me choose a standard one. Suppose:

After 18 rolls:

- 1: 3 times
- 2: 2 times
- 3: 4 times
- 4: 3 times
- 5: 3 times
- 6: 3 times

Total 18.

Then:

Q2: P(experimental, roll 1) = 3/18 = 1/6

Q4: actually rolled 1: 3 times

Q6: >4: 5 and 6 → 3+3=6 times → 6/18=1/3

But notice that for Q2, if they rolled 1 three times, experimental is 1/6, same as theoretical.

That might be intentional.

Perhaps the most reasonable assumption is that the student's experiment yielded results close to theoretical, but we need to pick something.

To avoid fabrication, let's do this:

For Questions 2, 4, and 6, since no data is provided, I will state that experimental probability requires actual trial results, and provide the formula. But for the sake of completing the worksheet as per instructions, I'll use the expected values as if the experiment matched theory — but that's not accurate.

Let's look at Question 7: difference between theoretical and experimental — so they are different concepts.

I think the best course is to answer the ones we can definitively, and for the experimental ones, explain that data is needed, but since the format requires final answers, I'll assume a common dataset.

Upon second thought, in many textbook problems, when they say "using the data" and show a table, and if it's blank in the query, it might be an oversight, but for this exercise, let's assume the following realistic data for 18 rolls:

Let’s say the frequencies are:

- 1: 2
- 2: 3
- 3: 3
- 4: 4
- 5: 3
- 6: 3

Sum: 2+3+3+4+3+3=18

Then:

Q2: P(exp, roll 1) = 2/18 = 1/9

Q4: actually rolled 1: 2 times

Q6: >4: 5 and 6 → 3+3=6 → 6/18=1/3

Q5: theoretical P(>4) = 2/6 = 1/3 — same as experimental in this case.

But let's make it different to illustrate.

Assume:

- 1: 4 times
- 2: 2 times
- 3: 3 times
- 4: 3 times
- 5: 2 times
- 6: 4 times

Sum: 4+2+3+3+2+4=18

Then:

Q2: P(exp,1) = 4/18 = 2/9

Q4: 4 times

Q6: >4: 5 and 6 → 2+4=6 → 6/18=1/3

Still 1/3 for >4.

To have variation, let's say:

- 1: 1 time
- 2: 4 times
- 3: 3 times
- 4: 2 times
- 5: 5 times
- 6: 3 times

Sum: 1+4+3+2+5+3=18

Then:

Q2: P(exp,1) = 1/18

Q4: 1 time

Q6: >4: 5 and 6 → 5+3=8 → 8/18 = 4/9

Theoretical for >4 is 2/6=1/3≈0.333, experimental 4/9≈0.444 — different.

This shows the difference.

I think for educational purposes, using this last set is good.

So I'll go with:

Frequencies assumed for 18 rolls:
- 1: 1
- 2: 4
- 3: 3
- 4: 2
- 5: 5
- 6: 3

Now proceed.

Question 1: Theoretical P(even)

Even numbers: 2,4,6 → 3 out of 6 → 3/6 = 1/2

Answer: \boxed{\dfrac{1}{2}} or 0.5

---

Question 2: Experimental P(roll 1)

From assumed data: rolled 1 once in 18 rolls → 1/18

Answer: \boxed{\dfrac{1}{18}}

---

Question 3: Expected number of times to roll 1 in 18 rolls

P(1) = 1/6, so expected = 18 × (1/6) = 3

Answer: \boxed{3}

---

Question 4: Actually rolled 1 in experiment

From assumed data: 1 time

Answer: \boxed{1}

---

Question 5: Theoretical P(number > 4)

>4 means 5 or 6 → 2 outcomes → 2/6 = 1/3

Answer: \boxed{\dfrac{1}{3}}

---

Question 6: Experimental P(number > 4)

From data: 5 occurred 5 times, 6 occurred 3 times → total 8 times >4

8/18 = 4/9

Answer: \boxed{\dfrac{4}{9}}

---

Question 7: Difference between theoretical and experimental probability

Theoretical probability is what we expect to happen based on math (like 1/6 for rolling a 1).

Experimental probability is what actually happens when you do the experiment (like 1/18 in our case).

They can be different because experiments have randomness. As you do more trials, experimental usually gets closer to theoretical.

Answer: Theoretical probability is calculated using math before any experiment, while experimental probability is found by doing the experiment and seeing what actually occurs. They may differ due to chance, but get closer with more trials.

Question 8: Defective cards

Studies 360 cards, 8 defective.

Probability next card is defective = number defective / total = 8/360

Simplify: divide numerator and denominator by 8 → 1/45

Or leave as 8/360 = 2/90 = 1/45

Answer: \boxed{\dfrac{1}{45}}

---

Now, compiling all final answers.

Note: For Questions 2,4,6, I used assumed data since none was provided. In a real scenario, the student would use their own rolled data.

But for this response, I'll present the answers based on the assumed frequencies.
