What Are Your Chances?

A certain event is an event...

• that has a probability of 1
• that is equally likely to occur
• that shows all results
• that almost always happens

Experimental probability is...

• the probability of a certain event occuring
• the total outcomes of an event
• the probability based on the results of a series of trials
• the probability of how likely an event might occur

A bag has 3 red marbles, 2 blue and 4 yellow. What is the theoretical probability of pulling a red?

• 3/10
• 3/9
• 1/9
• 1/3

A list of data that is arranged in such a way as to make sure you find all possibilities.

• Graphic organizer
• Trials list
• Product list
• Systematic list

The more trials collected over time will eventually predict the theoretical probability 

• Newtons Laws of Motion
• Law of Large Numbers
• Possible outcomes

A compound event is..

• an event that directly causes another
• the probability of all the outcomes
• 1 event that creates 2 results
• when 2 or independent more events work together

What your results should look like

• favorable outcome
• experimental probability
• Theoretical probabilty
• possible outcome

Unequally likely is

• different possible outcomes
• outcomes that have the same chance of occuring
• outcomes that don't have the same chance of occuring
•  the favorable outcome
