What was the theoretical probability of collecting a specific dinosaur, such as a velociraptor, in a single purchase?
how many spins did it take before you had at least one of each dinosaur in trial 1? trial 2? trial 3?
how does the number of spins correlate to the number of boxes of cereal that you would need to purchase?
what was the experimental probability for each dinosaur from trial 1? trial 2? trial 3?
how does the experimental probability of getting each dinosaur differ from the theoretical probability? here, you are comparing the experimental vs. theoretical probability of getting each type of dinosaur in a single purchase. in other words, you are determining the probability for a single event, not a compound event.
if someone bought eight boxes of cereal and got all eight dinosaurs, would you be surprised? why or why not?
how did the experimental probabilities change between the trials?
what are the advantages of using a simulation versus actually buying boxes of cereal?

:i need some real : a store sells shirts to the public at one pricing scale and wholesale at another pricing scale. the tables below describe the cost, y, of x shirts. (after tables) how do the slopes of the lines created by each table compare? the slope of the public table is 3/4 of the slope of the wholesale table. the slope of the wholesale table is 3/4 of the slope of the public table. the slope of the public table is 12 times greater than the slope of the wholesale table. the slope of the wholesale table is 12 times greater than the slope of the public table.
