Question:

In Problem several experiments are simulated using the random number feature on a graphing calculator. For example, the roll of a fair die can be simulated by selecting a random integer from 1 to 6, and 50 rolls of a fair die by selecting 50 random integers from 1 to 6.

(A) Explain how a graphing calculator can be used to simulate 500 tosses of a coin.

(B) Carry out the simulation and find the empirical probabilities of the two outcomes.

(C) What is the probability of each outcome under the equally likely assumption?
