What is a weighted tree diagram?

Back

A weighted tree diagram is a graphical representation of outcomes where each branch is assigned a weight (or probability) that reflects the likelihood of that outcome occurring.

How do you convert a decimal to a percent?

Back

To convert a decimal to a percent, multiply the decimal by 100 and add a percent sign. For example, 0.02 becomes 2%.

What is the probability of an event?

Back

The probability of an event is a measure of the likelihood that the event will occur, expressed as a number between 0 (impossible) and 1 (certain).

How do you calculate the total number of outcomes in a tree diagram?

Back

To calculate the total number of outcomes in a tree diagram, multiply the number of outcomes at each branch. For example, if there are 3 tops, 2 pants, and 2 shoes, the total is 3 x 2 x 2 = 12.

How do you find the probability of two independent events occurring together?

Back

To find the probability of two independent events occurring together, multiply their individual probabilities. For example, P(A) x P(B).

What is a sample space in probability?

Back

A sample space is the set of all possible outcomes of a probability experiment.

What does it mean for events to be independent in probability?

Back

Events are independent if the occurrence of one event does not affect the probability of the other event occurring.
