Probability Review (7-1 thru 7-6)

Front

What is Probability?

Back

Probability is a measure of how likely an event is to occur, expressed as a number between 0 and 1.

Front

What is Experimental Probability?

Back

Experimental Probability is the probability determined by conducting an experiment and observing the outcomes.

Front

What is Theoretical Probability?

Back

Theoretical Probability is the ratio of favorable outcomes to the total number of possible outcomes.

Front

How do you calculate Experimental Probability?

Back

Experimental Probability = (Number of times the event occurs) / (Total number of trials).

Front

What is a Tree Diagram?

Back

A tree diagram is a visual representation that shows all possible outcomes of an event.

Front

If a coin is tossed three times, how many possible outcomes are there?

Back

There are 2^3 = 8 possible outcomes when a coin is tossed three times.

Front

What does it mean if an event has a probability of 0?

Back

It means the event is impossible and will not occur.

Front

What does it mean if an event has a probability of 1?

Back

It means the event is certain and will definitely occur.

Front

What is the formula for calculating Theoretical Probability?

Back

Theoretical Probability = (Number of favorable outcomes) / (Total number of possible outcomes).

Front

What is the difference between Experimental and Theoretical Probability?

Back

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