The table shows the results of tossing a number cube 50 times.

Outcome Frequency
1 9
2 11
3 8
4 6
5 9
6 7

Determine the experimental probability of landing on a number greater than or equal to 4.
P(≥ 4) = 0.68
P(≥ 4) = 0.44
P(≥ 4) = 0.32
P(≥ 4) = 0.06

1 answer

To determine the experimental probability of landing on a number greater than or equal to 4, we first need to identify the outcomes that satisfy this condition. The numbers greater than or equal to 4 are 4, 5, and 6.

Now, we can find the total frequency of these outcomes from the table:

  • Frequency of 4: 6
  • Frequency of 5: 9
  • Frequency of 6: 7

Now, we add these frequencies together: \[ 6 + 9 + 7 = 22 \]

Next, we calculate the total number of tosses, which is given as 50.

The experimental probability \( P(\geq 4) \) can be calculated as follows: \[ P(\geq 4) = \frac{\text{Total frequency of outcomes 4, 5, and 6}}{\text{Total number of tosses}} = \frac{22}{50} \]

Simplifying this fraction: \[ P(\geq 4) = \frac{22}{50} = 0.44 \]

Therefore, the experimental probability of landing on a number greater than or equal to 4 is: \[ \boxed{0.44} \]
