Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

An empirical probability is based on past observations or experiments, making it more representative of actual long-term occurrences than a theoretical probability, which is calculated based on assumptions and mathematical models. Normal and continuous are types of distributions or variables, and do not relate to the concept of probability obtained through measurement.
