What is probability simulation?
Back
Probability simulation is a method used to model and analyze the likelihood of different outcomes in a random process by using random numbers or physical devices like dice or spinners.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is a random number generator?
Back
A random number generator is a tool or algorithm that produces a sequence of numbers that cannot be reasonably predicted better than by random chance.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
How can a number cube (die) be used in probability simulation?
Back
A number cube can represent different outcomes in a probability simulation. For example, rolling a six-sided die can simulate selecting one of six equally likely options.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What does it mean for outcomes to be equally likely?
Back
Outcomes are equally likely when each outcome has the same chance of occurring. For example, rolling a fair die gives each number (1-6) an equal probability of 1/6.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
How can you simulate a situation with a 30% chance of an event occurring?
Back
You can use a random number generator to generate numbers from 1 to 10, where numbers 1 to 3 represent the event occurring (30% chance) and numbers 4 to 10 represent it not occurring.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is the purpose of using simulations in probability?
Back
Simulations help to estimate probabilities and understand complex random processes by allowing us to conduct experiments without needing to perform them in real life.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is the difference between theoretical probability and experimental probability?
Back
Theoretical probability is based on the expected outcomes of an event, while experimental probability is based on the actual results obtained from conducting experiments.
