3 1. = 3 ÷ 8 = 0.375 = 0.375(100%) = 37.5% 2. 1 = = 11 ÷ 6 = 1.83 = 1.83(100%) = 183 % 3. 0.0043 = 0.0043(100%) = 0.43% 4. = 1 ÷ 400 = 0.0025 = 0.0025(100%) = 0.25% 5. 1.04 = 1.04(100%) = 104% 6. 3 = 3(100%) = 300% Solutions Probability – Warm Up 1 400 5656 11 6 1313 3838

4 There are two types of Probability: Experimental probability – P (event) = number of times the event occurs number of trials Theoretical Probability – P(A) = m n m = number of favorable outcomes n = number of equally likely outcomes

5 Probability A player hit the bull’s eye on a circular dartboard 8 times out of 50. Find the experimental probability that the player hits the bull’s eye. P(bull’s eye) = = 0.16, or 16% 8 50

6 Probability Find the theoretical probability of rolling a multiple of 3 with a number cube. To roll a multiple of 3 with a number cube, you must roll 3 or 6. 2626 6 equally likely outcomes are in the sample space. 2 outcomes result in a multiple of 3. 1313 =

7 Probability Brown is a dominant eye color for human beings. If a father and mother each carry a gene for brown eyes and a gene for blue eyes, what is the probability of their having a child with blue eyes? Bb BBBBb bBbbb Gene from Father Gene from Mother Let B represent the dominant gene for brown eyes. Let b represent the recessive gene for blue eyes. The sample space contains four equally likely outcomes {BB, Bb, Bb, bb}. 1414 The outcome bb is the only one for which a child will have blue eyes. So, P(blue eyes) =. 1414 The theoretical probability that the child will have blue eyes is, or 25%.

8 Geometry Probability Geometric Probability = area that would give a favorable solution total area R = 1 Each ring has a width of 1 How do we find the probability of hitting the purple ring? Strategy?? In your own words, how would we get the probability of the purple ring

9 Probability For the dartboard above, find the probability that a dart that lands at random on the dartboard hits the outer ring. P(outer ring) = area of outer ring area of circle with radius 4r = (area of circle with radius 4r) – (area of circle with radius 3r) area of circle with radius 4r = 16 r 2 – 9 r 2 16 r 2 = 7 r 2 = (4r) 2 – (3r) 2 (4r 2 ) = 7 16 The theoretical probability of hitting the outer ring is, or about 44%. 7 16 Radius = 1 Each ring has a width of 1

10 Random Number Generator When actual trials are difficult to conduct, you can find experimental probabilities by using a simulation, which is the model of one or more events. To create a random number list on the graphing calculator, use the following keys: MATH RandInt ENTER Create a random number generator for the integers 1 to 10 Input: (1, 10)
