Today’s Lesson: What: probability of compound events Why: To create and analyze tree diagrams; discover and use the fundamental counting principle; and use multiplication to calculate compound probability. What: probability of compound events Why: To create and analyze tree diagrams; discover and use the fundamental counting principle; and use multiplication to calculate compound probability.

Vocabulary: Compound Probability- refers to probability of more than ____________ event. Tree Diagram– shows the total possible __________________ of an event. Fundamental Counting Principle– used to determine the total possible ____________________ when more than one event is combined. Calculating Compound Probability– may use a tree diagram OR may _________________ the first event TIMES the second event. Compound Probability involves MORE than one event! one outcomes MULTIPLY

C.Using the dice diagram from Part A above, what is the probability of rolling doubles? A. Fill-in-the-chart:

TRIAL #1: Rolling Two Number Cubes Out of 20 trials, how many times will doubles occur– P(doubles)? 1) What do we need to know? # of doubles:____ total # of outcomes: ___ 2) Theoretical Probability: 3)Do the experiment (20 trials): 4) Experimental Probability: (what should happen) (what actually happens) 6 36

TRIAL #2 : Rolling a Number Cube and Flipping a Coin Out of 20 trials, how many times will heads and a # less than 3 occur– P(heads and a # < 3)? 1)What do we need to know? favorable outcomes: _____ total outcomes: _____ 2) Theoretical Probability: 3)Do the experiment (20 trials): 4) Experimental Probability: (what should happen) (what actually happens) 2 12

2) When a number cube is rolled and the spinner shown is spun, what is the probability of landing on an even # and orange– P(even # and orange) ? P(1 st Event ) x P(2 nd Event) x =

3)A card is drawn from a standard deck of cards and a letter is picked from a bag containing the letters M-A-T-H-E-M-A-T-I-C-S: a) P(ace and a vowel) b) P(red card and a “T”) 4)A bag contains 3 grape, 4 orange, 6 cherry, and 2 chocolate tootsie pops. Once a pop is picked, it is placed back into the bag: a) P(grape, then cherry) b) P(two oranges in a row) c) P(chocolate, then orange)
