James conducted an experiment with 4 possible outcomes. he determined that the experimental probability of event a happening is 10 out of 50. the theoretical probability of event a happening is 1 out of 4. which action is most likely to cause the experimental probability and theoretical probabilities for each event in the experiment to become closer?

Here, the experimental probability and the theoretical probability differs.

The things that may have an impact on it are:

a) There are things that may not be considered or simplified in the theoretical model, like the temperature, atmospheric pressure, material used, etc.

So you can try to take this thing in your theoretical model and correct it, with the objective of finding a new theoretical probability of the event A, that may be closer to the experimental one.

b) You may not do enough repetitions of the experiment, with enough repetitions, the mean of the probability may skew a little bit towards the theoretical probability.

120 seems like the most sensible answer.

step-by-step explanation:

if there is only one topping on all caramel apples and there's 120 of them. then all apples should/will be covered in sprinkles. make sense?
