2. Given a six-sided number cube, what is the probability of rolling a prime number? Write your answer a reduced fraction, decimal, and percent. 3. You are a student in a 7th grade math class and you want to create an experiment for your class with red, yellow, and purple marbles in a bag. You want the theoretical probability of drawing a red marble to be ½. If the total number of marbles in the bag will be 160, how many red marbles should you put in the bag? Write your answer as a reduced fraction, decimal, and percent. 4. If you roll two six-sided number cubes (dice), what is the probability of getting a sum of 10? Write your answer as a reduced fraction, decimal, and percent. 5. Use the table below which shows the sums when two six-sided number cubes (dice) have been rolled 10 times. Trial Sum

7. There is a bag of pink, purple, and black marbles. There is an 28% possibility of randomly picking a pink marble and a 56% chance of randomly picking a black marble. What is the probability of picking a purple marble? Write your answer as a fraction, decimal, and percent.
8. Talia has a bag containing 9 black tiles and 6 pink tiles. Talia pulls one tile out at a time and returns it. a. What is the sample space? b. What is the probability that Talia will pick a pink tile? c. If Talia picks a tile from the bag and returns it 30 times, predict how many times you would expect her to pick a black tile. Explain your reasoning. d. Explain why the experimental probability of drawing a black tile can never be greater than one.

You are a student in a 7th grade math class and you want to create an experiment for your class with red, yellow, and purple marbles in a bag. You want the theoretical probability of drawing a red marble to be ½. If the total number of marbles in the bag will be 160, how many red marbles should you put in the bag? Write your answer as a reduced fraction, decimal, and percent. 80 red marbles, ½, 0.5, 50% of the bag 4. If you roll two six-sided number cubes (dice), what is the probability of getting a sum of 10?

a. What is the experimental probability of rolling a sum of 6 based on the table above? P(sum of 6) = 3/10, 30%, 0.3 b. What is the theoretical probability of rolling a sum of 6? � , 13 8 % P(sum of 6) = 5/36, . 138 9 c. How does the experimental probability compare to the theoretical probability of rolling a sum of 6? The experimental probability is greater than the theoretical probability. Reasons will vary. 6.

What is the experimental probability of landing on bird? P(bird) = 1/4
b. What is the theoretical probability of landing on bird? P(bird) = 1/4 c. List the sample space. Use set notation. {bird, raccoon, gorilla, camel, okapi}
7. There is a bag of pink, purple, and black marbles. There is an 28% possibility of randomly picking a pink marble and a 56% chance of randomly picking a black marble. What is the probability of picking a purple marble? Write your answer as a fraction, decimal, and percent. P(purple) = 16%, 0.16, 4/25 8. Talia has a bag containing 9 black tiles and 6 pink tiles. Talia pulls one tile out at a time and returns it. a. What is the sample space? {black, pink} b. What is the probability that Talia will pick a pink tile? P(pink) = 2/5, 0.4, 40% c. If Talia picks a tile from the bag and returns it 30 times, predict how many times you would expect her to pick a black tile. Explain your reasoning. P(black) = 3/5, 0.6, 60%. So, I predict that Talia will pick 18 black tiles in 30 draws. d. Explain why the experimental probability of drawing a black tile can never be greater than one. If Talia is only picking 30 times, the maximum the experimental probability can be is 30/30 or 1. The observed frequency cannot be greater than the number of trials.
