5. Intro to Probability

6. Overview Probability is the study of random events.
The probability, or chance, that an event will happen can be described by a number between 0 and 1:
Impossible
0 = 0%
50 – 50 Chance
½ , .5, 50%
Certain
1 = 100%

7. Vocabulary Definition Examples
Trial: a systematic opportunity for an event to occur
Rolling a number cube
Experiment: one or more trials
Rolling a number cube 10 times
Sample space: the set of all possible outcomes of an event
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6
Event: an individual outcome or any specified combination of outcomes
Rolling a 3
Rolling a 3 or rolling a 5

8. The outcomes of an experiment is the way it can happen
The outcomes of an experiment is the way it can happen. Outcomes are random if possible outcomes are equally likely. 6 10 12 52

Experimental Probability (inductively) vs. Theoretical Probability (deductively)

10. Theoretical Probability
If all outcomes in a sample space are equally likely, then the theoretical probability of event A, denoted P(A), is defined by

14. COINS
What is the probability of flipping two coins and getting H first and then T?
P(H & then T) = 1 4

15. Fundamental Counting Principle
If there are “m” ways that one event can occur and “n” ways that another event can occur, then there are (m x n) ways that both events can occur

16. Example
A café’s lunch special is a hamburger meal. It comes with a choice of beverage (soda or tea) and a choice of salad (garden, potato, or bean). Create a tree diagram that shows the sample space.

17. Example
A license plate consists of 2 letters followed by 3 digits. The letters, A-Z, and the numbers 0-9, can be repeated. Find the probability that your new license plate contains the initials of your first and last names in their proper order.
