What does it mean when we say a chance is uniform?

• Every outcome has the same chance of happening.

• The chance of each outcome happening changes over time.

• There is only one possible outcome.

• Every outcome has a different chance of happening.

How do you calculate probabilities using uniform distribution?

• P(event) = Number of favorable outcomes / Total number of possible outcomes

• P(event) = Number of favorable outcomes - Total number of possible outcomes

• P(event) = Number of favorable outcomes * Total number of possible outcomes

• P(event) = Total number of possible outcomes / Number of favorable outcomes

Can you provide an example of an application of uniform probability in real life?

• Rolling a fair six-sided die

• Flipping a biased coin

• Drawing a card from a deck with missing cards

• Predicting the weather with a broken thermometer

Define the concept of uniform probability distribution.

• Each possible outcome has a decreasing probability of occurring.

• Each possible outcome has an increasing probability of occurring.

• Each possible outcome has an equal probability of occurring.

• Each possible outcome has a random probability of occurring.

How is uniform probability used in statistics?

• Uniform probability means no outcome of a random event is considered more likely than others.

• Uniform probability means each outcome of a random event is considered less likely than the one before.

• Uniform probability means every outcome of a random event is considered equally likely.

• Uniform probability means each outcome of a random event is considered to have a different chance of happening.

Why is it important to have equal chances in making decisions?

• Having equal chances in making decisions helps everyone be treated fairly and stops unfair preferences.

• Equal chances in making decisions are not important.

• Having equal chances actually makes decisions more unfair.

• Equal chances in making decisions only help some people, not everyone.

If you have a long rope and you dye a segment of it, what's the probability you'll grab the dyed part?

• Length of the dyed segment - Length of the entire rope

• Length of the entire rope / Length of the dyed segment

• Length of the dyed segment * Length of the entire rope

• Length of the dyed segment / Length of the entire rope

Imagine you have a fair dice that can land on any number between 1 and 6. When would knowing that each number has an equal chance of coming up be really important for making a smart choice?

• If the dice is not fair and some numbers come up more than others, then knowing each number has an equal chance doesn't really help.

• Knowing that each number has an equal chance of coming up is only important for thinking about problems, not for real-life choices.

• When you're dealing with situations where everything has the same chance of happening, like rolling a fair dice, it's really important to understand that each outcome is equally likely.

• Understanding that each outcome has an equal chance is only helpful when there are a few possible outcomes, not when making complicated decisions.

What's the difference between nonuniform and uniform probability when we talk about how likely something is to happen?

• Nonuniform probability means everything has the same chance of happening, but uniform probability means they don't.

• Nonuniform probability gives different chances to different things, which isn't the case with uniform probability.

• There's no difference in how likely something is to happen whether it's nonuniform or uniform probability.

• Nonuniform probability is only for situations with two possible outcomes, while uniform probability is for situations with many outcomes.
