2. Objectives Content Objectives  Students will review probability rules through review of Thursday’s work.  Students will learn about the fundamental counting principle. Language Objectives  Students will not call out unless called on.  Students will participate in discussion.  Students will demonstrate their understanding in writing.

4. Review of Thursday’s work  What is sample space?  What is an outcome?  What is the difference between theoretical probability and experimental probability?

5. More review of Thursday’s work  Which of the following are independent events: rolling a die and flipping coin drawing a card from a deck of cards, and drawing another card from the same deck rolling a die, and then rolling it again drawing a piece of candy from a jar, and then drawing another piece of candy

6. A bag contains 4 red marbles, 16 yellow marbles, 5 purple marbles, 16 blue marbles, and 10 green marbles. What is the probability of pulling out a red or a green marble?

7. You have a jar filled with cookies. You have 10 snickerdoodles, 5 chocolate chip, and 5 sugar cookies. What is the probability that you will select a snickerdoodle and then a sugar cookie?

8. You are drawing cards from a regular deck of cards. What is the probability that you will draw a red queen and then a black seven?

9. A deck of cards has 3 blue, 4 black, and 6 purple cards. You pick 2 cards from the deck. Cards are not returned to the deck after they are picked. Find P(two blue cards in a row)

10. A deck of cards has 5 pink, 6 orange, 3 purple, and 5 navy cards. You pick 2 cards from the deck. Cards are not returned to the deck after they are picked. Find P(the first card is pink and the second card is purple)

11. There are 4 yellow, 6 black, and 4 pink marbles in a hat. You pick 3 marbles from the hat. Marbles are not returned after they have been drawn. Find P(the first marble is black, the second marble is not pink, and the third marble is yellow)

12. A deck of cards has 6 yellow, 4 blue, and 5 black cards. You pick 4 cards from the deck. Cards are not returned to the deck after they are picked. Find P(four blue cards in a row)

13. The fundamental counting principle  The fundamental counting principle states that: "If there are r ways to do one thing, and s ways to do another, and t ways to do a third thing, and so on..., then the number of ways of doing all those things at once is r * s * t etc...."

14. Another example  You have four pairs of pants, five shirts, and six pairs of shoes. How many outfits can you make?

17. Did we meet our objectives? Content Objectives  Students will review probability rules through review of Thursday’s work.  Students will learn about the fundamental counting principle. Language Objectives  Students will not call out unless called on.  Students will participate in discussion.  Students will demonstrate their understanding in writing.
