What is Compound Probability?

Back

Compound Probability refers to the probability of two or more events happening at the same time. It can be calculated using tree diagrams or the Fundamental Counting Principle.

What is a Tree Diagram?

Back

A Tree Diagram is a visual representation that shows all possible outcomes of an event, branching out from a starting point to illustrate different paths.

How do you calculate total outcomes using a Tree Diagram?

Back

To calculate total outcomes using a Tree Diagram, multiply the number of outcomes for each event. For example, rolling a die (6 outcomes) and flipping a coin (2 outcomes) gives 6 x 2 = 12 total outcomes.

What is the Fundamental Counting Principle (FCP)?

Back

The Fundamental Counting Principle states that if one event can occur in 'm' ways and a second event can occur independently in 'n' ways, then the two events can occur in m x n ways.

If you roll a die and flip a coin, how many possible outcomes are there?

Back

12 outcomes (6 outcomes from the die and 2 outcomes from the coin: 6 x 2 = 12).

What is Experimental Probability?

Back

Experimental Probability is the probability based on the actual results of an experiment, calculated as the number of successful outcomes divided by the total number of trials.

What is the difference between Theoretical Probability and Experimental Probability?

Back

Theoretical Probability is based on expected outcomes, while Experimental Probability is based on actual outcomes observed in experiments.

What does it mean to find the total outcomes in a sample?

Back

Finding the total outcomes in a sample means determining all the possible results that can occur from a given set of events.

Front

What is a sample space?

Back

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