Question

What is an advantage that experimental probability has over theoretical probability?
a.
Experimental probability is more rigorously tested than theoretical probability.
b.
Experimental probability provides unique results, while theoretical probability only provides generic results which may not fit the situation.
c.
It is not always possible to calculate theoretical probability in complex situations, but experimental probability can be calculated any time experiments can be run.
d.
Experimental probability changes over time, while theoretical probability remains constant.

Answer 1

c. It is not always possible to calculate theoretical probability in complex situations, but experimental probability can be calculated any time experiments can be run.

Explanation: Experimental (empirical) probability is useful when a theoretical model is hard or impossible to derive — you can approximate probabilities by running trials and observing outcomes.
