SIMULATIONS CHAPTER 10 SECTION 4 PGS

A store is handing out coupons worth 30%, 35%, or 40% off. Each coupon is equally likely to be handed out. Which of the following models could be used to simulate this situation? A.) flipping a coin B.) rolling a number cube labeled one through six three times C.) spinning a spinner with four equal sections D.) spinning a spinner with three equal sections

A store is handing out coupons worth 10%, 15%, 20%, or 25% off. Each coupon is equally likely to be handed out. Which of the following models could be used to simulate this situation? A.) flipping a coin four times B.) spinning a spinner with four equal sections C.) rolling a number cube labeled one through six one time D.) rolling a number cube labeled one through six four times

Donte has homework in language arts and science. He randomly picks up one the 2 homework folders. Which simulation could be used to model the selection of one of the folders? A.) rolling a number cube B.) tossing a coin C.) spinning a spinner with 3 equal sections D.) spinning a spinner with 4 equal sections

Marcus placed 8 blue tiles and 12red tiles in a container. He plans to draw a tile, record its color, and replace it in the container before drawing another. Suppose Marcus does this 50 times. How many times should he expect to draw a red tile? A.) 8 B.) 12 C.) 20 D.) 30

Claire tosses a coin and rolls a number cube 100 times. How many times should she expect to have the coin show heads and roll a 1 or a 2? A.) 17 B.) 33 C.) 50 D.) 66

A box of cereal contains one cartoon character toy and there are six different toys to collect. If you want to collect all the toys, which of the following simulations could help you estimate the number of boxes of cereal you would need to purchase in order to collect all six toys? A.) Flip a coin six times and record the results B.) Roll a six-sided number cube until each number is rolled once. C.) Create a tree diagram to show all of the different combinations. D.) Label cards as A, B, C, D, E, and F. Draw a card, record the result, do not replace the card, and then draw another card. Repeat this process until all six cards have been drawn.

The questions on a multiple-choice test each have 5 answer choices. Which of the following models could you use to simulate the outcome of guessing the correct answer? A.) spinning a spinner with five equal sections B.) flipping a coin five times C.) spinning a spinner with four equal sections D.) rolling a number cube labeled one through
