Holt Algebra 1
10-5 Experimental Probability
An experiment is an activity involving chance. Each repetition or observation of an experiment is a trial, and each possible result is an outcome. The sample space of an experiment is the set of all possible outcomes.
Holt Algebra 1
10-5 Experimental Probability
Example 1: Identifying Sample Spaces and Outcomes
Identify the sample space and the outcome shown for each experiment.
A. Rolling a number cube
Sample space:{1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}
Outcome shown: 4
B. Spinning a spinner
Sample space:{red, green, orange, purple}
Outcome shown: green
Holt Algebra 1
10-5 Experimental Probability
An event is an outcome or set of outcomes in an experiment.
Probability is the measure of how likely an event is to occur. Probabilities are written as fractions or decimals from 0 to 1, or as percents from 0% to 100%.
Holt Algebra 1
10-5 Experimental Probability
ImpossibleAs likely as not
Certain
Unlikely Likely
0%Events with a probability of
0% never happen.
50%Events with a
probability of 50% have the same
chance of happening as not.
100%Events with a probability of 100% always
happen.
Holt Algebra 1
10-5 Experimental Probability
You can estimate the probability of an event by performing an experiment.
The experimental probability of an event is the ratio of the number of times the event occurs to the number of trials. The more trials performed, the more accurate the estimate will be.

You can use experimental probability to make predictions.
A prediction is an estimate or guess about something that has not yet happened.

Example 4A: Quality Control Application
A manufacturer inspects 500 strollers and finds that 498 have no defects.
What is the experimental probability that a stroller chosen at random has no defects?
Find the experimental probability that a stroller has no defects.
= 99.6%
The experimental probability that a stroller has no defects is 99.6%.
Holt Algebra 1
10-5 Experimental Probability
Example 4B: Manufacturing Application
A manufacturer inspects 500 strollers and finds that 498 have no defects.
The manufacturer shipped 3500 strollers to a distribution center. Predict the number of strollers that are likely to have no defects.
Find 99.6% of 3500.
0.996(3500) = 3486
The prediction is that 3486 strollers will have no defects.

Example 5A: Try It Now
A manufacturer inspects 1500 electric toothbrush motors and finds 1497 have no defects. What is the experimental probability that a motor chosen at random will have no defects?
Find the experimental probability that a motor has no defects.
= 99.8%

Example 5B: Try It Now
A manufacturer inspects 1500 electric toothbrush motors and finds 1497 have no defects. There are 35,000 motors in a warehouse. Predict the number of motors that are likely to have no defects.
Find 99.8% of 35,000.
0.998(35000) = 34930
The prediction is that 34,930 motors will have no defects.
