    Probability is a number between 0 and 1 that indicates the likelihood of an event occurring. It can be calculated by dividing the number of favorable outcomes by the total number of possible outcomes. Key terms include trials, sample space, outcomes, and events. Probability of independent events can be found by adding the individual probabilities, while probability of dependent events is found by multiplying the individual probabilities.

    COVERING CHAPTERS 5A, 5E, 5F


    • Probability is a number between 0 and 1 assigned to a event. This number indicates
    how likely this event is to occur.

    DEFINITIONS:
    • A trial is a single occurrence of a change experiment, such as rolling a single die, or
    flipping a coin.
    • Sample space is a list of possible scenarios for a certain experiment or trial.

    • Outcome is a possible result of the experiment.


    • Event is a list of favourable outcomes.
    • Equally likely outcomes have the same chances of occurring. I.e., rolling dice,
    flipping coin, next baby being a boy etc.

    Probability of an event occurring can be given by the equation:


    Arrays in Two-step experiments and Tree diagrams.

    • Probability of A or B = A + B
    • Probability of A and B = A x B
