Chances Experiment with Outcomes and Calculating Probabilities of Compound Events

A number that tells how likely an event is to happen.

• probability

• outcome

• event

• simulation

20% probability

• certain

• likely

• unlikely

• uncertain

100% probability

• certain

• likely

• unlikely

• uncertain

Something you do over and over again, and you don't know what will happen each time

• my homework

• outcomes

• chance experiment

• events

An experiment that approximates a situation in the real world, meant to save time and is easier

• outcome

• simulation

• probability

• event

Set of outcomes in a chance experiment

• event

• outcomes

• certain

• probability

Outcomes that are equally likely

• events

• random

• temporary

• probability

List of every possible outcome

• chance experiment

• probability model

• simulation

• sample space

One of the things that can happen in a chance experiment

• random

• sample space

• outcome

• event

Which would be best to use for an experiment that will produce one of ten different outcomes with equal probability for each.

• standard number cube

• spinner with 10 equal parts

• coin

• bag with 100 pieces of paper
