Which statement best describes the Law of Large Numbers?

Answer

tends to get closer to    as    becomes large.

Answer

is exactly equal to    for large enough   .

Answer

The packet-loss probability    decreases as more packets are tested.

Answer

Individual packet outcomes become less random as    increases.
