To find the empirical probability of getting heads after tossing the coin 50 times and getting 12 tails, we first need to determine the number of heads obtained.
Number of heads = Total tosses - Number of tails Number of heads = 50 - 12 = 38
Next, we can calculate the empirical probability of getting heads as follows:
Empirical probability of heads = (Number of heads) / (Total tosses)
Empirical probability of heads = 38 / 50 = 0.76
To convert this to percent form, we multiply by 100:
0.76 × 100 = 76%
Therefore, the empirical probability of getting heads is 76%.
