This lesson covers the use of probability models to determine event probabilities. It begins with a scenario involving a chess club captain selection, illustrating the concept of probability. The lesson then explains probability models, sample space, and theoretical versus experimental probability. Through examples involving marbles, students learn to develop and apply probability models to estimate outcomes and evaluate situations. The lesson concludes with a summary of key concepts and the importance of understanding probability models.
