About this worksheet

What students practice

Students build probability models by dividing observed outcome frequencies by the total number of trials.
Students use observed probability models to predict results under comparable conditions.
Students explain why an outcome with an observed frequency of zero may still be possible.

How to use

Have students work through the board records independently, then compare models and discuss the final explanation. Allow fractions or decimals for probabilities.

Curriculum

Common Core standard covered

7.SP.C.7.b

Track Meet: Model the Results Board

Use observed frequencies to model how track results reach the board.

From Timing System to Board

A delay is the time from an official result being released to its appearance on the results board. Use the observed frequencies to estimate probabilities for comparable updates.
