Probability Experimental and Theoretical and Sample Space

Which of the following methods is NOT a good tool for determining sample space?

• tree diagrams

• area models

• organized lists

• guess and check

A measurement of the likelihood of an event or events occurring on a scale of 0 to 1 is called - 

• data

• luck

• probability

• trials

When collected data is used to express probability, we call it - 

• theoretical probability

• experimental probability

• simple probability

• compound probability

The probability of an event occurring, P(A), can be expressed as a fraction, decimal, or percent.

• True

• False

How do we determine which event is most likely to occur?

• The event has the closest improper fraction to 1

• The event has the closest proper fraction to 1/2

• The event has the closest proper fraction to 0

• The event has the closest proper fraction to 1
