Question

tia performed an experiment in which she flipped a coin 100 times. the coin landed heads up 49 times and tails up 51 times. the number 100 represents the in the experiment. 49/100 represents the of the coin landing heads up.

Explanation:

First Blank:

In probability experiments, the total number of trials is the number of times an experiment is conducted. Here, the coin is flipped 100 times. So, 100 is the total number of trials.

Second Blank:

The formula for experimental probability \(P(E)=\frac{\text{Number of favorable outcomes}}{\text{Total number of outcomes}}\). The number of times heads comes up is 49 (favorable outcomes) and the total number of flips is 100 (total outcomes). So, \(\frac{49}{100}\) is the experimental probability.

Answer:

First blank: total number of trials; Second blank: experimental probability.
