Probability
2
probability The chance or likelihood that an event will occur. - It is always a number between zero and one. - It is stated as a fraction, decimal, or percent.
3
A Probability of Zero is saying that there is no chance of it happening. A Probability of One is saying that the event will always happen.
4
If the event doesn’t occur every time, or none of the time, then we use this formula to determine the probability: P (event) = # desired outcomes # total possible outcomes
5
Sample space List of all possible outcomes
6
Theoretical probability Based on considering all possible outcomes experimental probability Based on considering all previous outcomes –R–Real data
7
Probability of multiple events Find the probability of each individual event Multiply each probability together
8
Independent Events The outcome of one event DOES NOT affect the outcome of the next event
9
dependent Events The outcome of one event DOES affect the outcome of each subsequent event because it changes the sample space. Assume each event is a success!
