Investigation:

Calculate the theoretical frequency for each sum occurring in 100 rolls and enter your answers in cells C5 - C15 The calculation will be rounded to the nearest tenth. Observe the changes in the graph.

Do the experimental and theoretical probabilities converge? When? From below? From above? An oscillation? How many times do experimental and theoretical probabilities meet?
