Sample Space - The number of total outcomes when there are more than one event occuring.

• We can use a tree diagram to help us make an organized list.

• We can also use the Fundamental Counting Principle to find the total number of outcomes.

• To find total outcomes multiply the number of outcomes for each event.

Compound Probability - Independent

• When the outcome of one event DOES NOT affect the outcome of another event.

• Number cubes, spinners, coins, all examples of independent events.

• To find the probability of independent events, multiply the simple probability of each event.

Compound Probability - Dependent Events

• A dependent event is when the outcome of the first event affacts the outcomes for the second event.

• Key words are "NOT REPLACED"

• When you find dependent compound probability, the first fraction is a simple event, the second fraction assumes the first happened.
