OBJECTIVE: Investigation 4#To understand the two ways to obtain probabilities: by gathering data from experiments (experimental probability) and by analyzing possible and favorable outcomes (theoretical probability). #To understand the relationship between experimental and theoretical probabilities: when an experimental probability is based on a large number of trials, it is a good estimate of the theoretical probability. #To develop strategies for finding theoretical probabilities, such as making an organized list of all possible outcomes. #To develop an understanding of the word random. ACTIVITIES: Investigation 4.3 "Winning the Bonus Prize," P33. Distribute Progress Report #3 NOTES: HOMEWORK: P33, 4.3 A-D
