PROBABILITY correct answers it is the chance of an event occurring
PERCENTAGE correct answers parts of a whole
Impossible correct answers 0% possibility
Probability that the day of the month will be 32
Unlikely correct answers 1% to 30% probability
A snowstorm in Boston leaves more than 15 inches of snow
As likely as unlikely correct answers 40% to 60% probability
A pregnant woman having a boy rather than a girl
Likely correct answers 70% to 99% probability
The probability that a child born in the United States will live to adulthood
Certain correct answers 100% probability
The probability that everyone alive today has a birthday
,Decimal Expression of Percentage correct answers probability percentages range strictly from
0% to 100%
Therefore the decimal form of percentages range from 0 to 1 (remember to obtain the decimal
form of a percentage, you divide by 100)
EXPERIMENT correct answers is the procedure, or situation, for which the probability is being
calculated.
So the roll of a die can be an experiment, a coin flip can be an experiment, or even the weather
on a particular Wednesday
OUTCOME correct answers The possibilities of what can occur during an experiment—the
results of the experiment—
When rolling a die, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 are the possible outcomes
EVENT correct answers is comprised of one or more outcomes.
The die landing on an even number is an event. The die landing on 1 is also an event
FAIR correct answers if each outcome is equally likely.
P(E) correct answers The probability of an event is represented by P(E) which means probability
(P) of a certain event (E) occurring.
If R = Rain and the weatherman says there is a 40 percent chance of rain, then P(R) = 0.40.
(Notice that the probability is written in its decimal form).
, . An experiment is the procedure to test the occurrence of an event. True or False? correct
answers FALSE
An experiment is the procedure for which the probability of an event is calculated.
The possible results of an experiment are outcomes. True or False? correct answers TRUE
Each of the possible results from an experiment is known as an outcome.
The probability of an event occurring can be greater than 100%. True or False? correct answers
false
The probability of an event is always between 0% and 100%.
How can probability be expressed in numeric terms? correct answers FRACTIONS
DECIMALS
PERCENTS
What is an example of a fair experiment? correct answers flipping a coin
This experiment has an equal probability for each possible outcome.
SET correct answers a collection of unique elements
For example, a set of tree species is: oak, juniper, elm, maple.
SUBSET correct answers Set A is a subset* of set B, if every element in A is contained within B.
