In this experiment, you will be using two coins as a simulation for a real-world compound event.

Suppose that a family has an equally likely chance of having a cat or a dog. If they have two pets, they could have 1 dog and 1 cat, they could have 2 dogs, or they could have 2 cats.

What is the theoretical probability that the family has two dogs or two cats?
Describe how to use two coins to simulate which two pets the family has.
Flip both coins 50 times and record your data in a table like the one below.

Result Frequency
Heads, Heads
Heads, Tails
Tails, Heads
Tails, Tails
Total 50
Based on your data, what is the experimental probability that the family has two dogs or two cats?
If the family has three pets, what is the theoretical probability that they have three dogs or three cats?
How could you change the simulation to generate data for three pets?

In a test for esp (extrasensory perception), the experimenter looks at cards that are hidden from the subject. each card contains either a star, a circle, a wave, a cross or a square.(five shapes) as the experimenter looks at each of 20 cards in turn, the subject names the shape on the card. when the esp study described above discovers a subject whose performance appears to be better than guessing, the study continues at greater length. the experimenter looks at many cards bearing one of five shapes (star, square, circle, wave, and cross) in an order determined by random numbers. the subject cannot see the experimenter as he looks at each card in turn, in order to avoid any possible nonverbal clues. the answers of a subject who does not have esp should be independent observations, each with probability 1/5 of success. we record 1000 attempts. which of the following assumptions must be met in order to solve this problem? it's reasonable to assume normality 0.8(1000), 0.2(1000)%30 approximately normal 0.8(1000), 0.2(1000)% 10 approximately normal srs it is reasonable to assume the total number of cards is over 10,000 it is reasonable to assume the total number of cards is over 1000
