1.6 probability

Question 1

Experimental Probability

Answer 1

of event = P(event)

= number of times the event occurs
____________________________
number of trials

Question 2

Simulation

Answer 2

When actual trials are difficult to conduct, you can find experimental probabilities by using a Simulation, which is a model of one or more events.

Question 3

Sample Space

Answer 3

When you roll a number cube, the possible outcomes are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6. The set of all probabilities outcomes is called the sample space. You can calculate theoretical probability as a ratio of outcomes.

Question 4

Theoretical Probability

Answer 4

If a sample space has “n” equally likely outcomes an event “A” occurs in “m” of these outcomes, then the theoretical of event A is P(A)= m
