Design an experiment to determine the empirical probability that a person will randomly select a can of Coke when given a cooler with equal numbers of cans of both Coke and Pepsi. (NOTE: each person considerately replaces the can after they have selected it, so the total number of cans will stay the same throughout the experiment.)
• Calculate the empirical probability after five persons.
• Calculate the empirical probability after ten persons.
• What is the theoretical probability that a person selected at random would select the Coke?
• Analyze: How does the empirical probability in your experiment compare to the theoretical probability of selecting the Coke? Why are the probabilities not the same?
