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 to 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 buying cereal boxes?

Solve this too!!

1. Divide 1 by the total number of types of dinosaurs. 2. For this, you have to spin the spinner and see what you get. 3. They are the same number. 4. The experimental probability should be the number of successes over the number of total spins in the trial. 5. Are they the same or different? 6. How likely is it that someone would get all eight dinosaurs by buying eight boxes? 7. Are they the same or different? 8. With a simulation, do you actually have to buy all of those boxes of cereal?
