P Probability - Introduction to
Prispevano od: Cason

Probability is how likely something is to happen.  All

probability must fall from zero to one or from zero to

100%.  Probability can be expressed as a fraction,

decimal, or percent.  An impossible event has a

probability of zero.  A certain event has a probability of

one or 100%.

 

The smallest probability is         .

 

The largest probability is          or 100%.

 

Spell out both answers.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Use the table to find the probability of each event.

 

Outcome         A          B            C          D            E

 

Probability     0.25      0          0.15      0.2          0.4

   

P(A or E) = 0

Note:  Do not include a zero before  the decimal or

add extra zeros to the right end.

The probability for all independent events can be

calculated by multiplying their individual probabilities.

For example:  The probability for getting heads when

flipping a fair coin is ½.  So the probability for getting

heads on both when flipping two fair coins is ½ • ½ or ¼. 

The probability for getting heads when flipping three fair

coins would be ½•½•½ = ⅛.  What would the probability

of getting all heads when flipping four fair coins?

On independent events the second  part of the experi-

ment does not influence the first part.  An example

would be flipping two coins.  The second has no

control over the first coin and vice versa.  To find the

probability of both events, multiply their individual

probabilities.

 

On dependent events the second event is limited by the

outcome of the first event.  An example would be if you

finish your supper, you may have dessert.  To find the

probability for these, the second MUST be adjusted for

the first event.

State if the following is an example of independent or

dependent events.
