100
An event that consists of two or more events, like spinning a spinner and flipping a coin.
Compound Event
100
The outcomes of a specific event. (ex. When rolling a number cube, the ________ ____________ for the event “rolling an even number” are 2, 4, and 6.)
Favorable Outcomes
100
Two events such that the occurrence of one event does not affect the likelihood that the other event(s) will occur. (ex. You flip a coin and roll a number cube. The events “flipping tails” and “rolling a 4” are __________ ________.)
Independent Events
100
The set of all possible outcomes of one or more events. (ex. You flip a coin twice. The outcomes in the ______ ______ are HH, HT, TH, and TT.)
Sample Space
100
Probability that is based on repeated trials of an experiment. (ex. A basketball player makes 19 baskets in 28 attempts. The __________ __________ that the player makes a basket is 19/28, or about 68%.)
Experimental Probability
200
A collection of one or more outcomes of an experiment (ex. Flipping heads on a coin)
Event
200
An investigation or procedure that has varying results. (ex. Rolling a number cube)
Experiment
200
Sally wants a new car. She can have a two door or four door, manual or automatic transmission, in blue, red or black. This is how many different car styles she may chose from.

200
Two events such that the occurrence of one event affects the likelihood that the other event(s) will occur. (ex. A bag contains 3 red marbles and 4 blue marbles. You randomly draw a marble, do not replace it, then randomly draw another marble. The events “first marble is blue” and “second marble is red” are __________ _________.)
Dependent Events
200
An event M has m possible outcomes and event N has n possible outcomes. The total number of outcomes of event M followed by event N is m × n. (ex. You have 7 shirts, 5 pairs of pants, and 2 pairs of shoes. You can make 7 5 2 70 × × = different outfits.)
Fundamental Counting Principle
300
Two events such that the occurrence of one event affects the likelihood that the other event(s) will occur. (ex. A bag contains 3 red marbles and 4 blue marbles. You randomly draw a marble, do not replace it, then randomly draw another marble. The events “first marble is blue” and “second marble is red” are __________ _________.)
Dependent Events
300
The possible results of an experiment. (ex. The ________ of flipping a coin are heads and tails.)
Outcomes
300
The booth is selling snow cones. You can have a small or medium cone with either blue raspberry, cherry, grape or lime flavoring. This is how many different snow cones that can be made.

300
The possible results of an experiment. (ex. The ________ of flipping a coin are heads and tails.)
Outcomes
300
A number from 0 to 1 that measures the likelihood that an event will occur.
Probability
400
Probability that is based on repeated trials of an experiment. (ex. A basketball player makes 19 baskets in 28 attempts. The __________ __________ that the player makes a basket is 19/28, or about 68%.)
Experimental Probability
400
Two events such that the occurrence of one event does not affect the likelihood that the other event(s) will occur. (ex. You flip a coin and roll a number cube. The events “flipping tails” and “rolling a 4” are __________ ________.)
Independent Events
400
The ratio of the number of favorable outcomes to the number of possible outcomes when all possible outcomes are equally likely. (ex. When rolling a number cube, the ________ __________ of rolling a 4 is 1/6)
Theoretical Probability
400
The outcomes of a specific event. (ex. When rolling a number cube, the ________ ____________ for the event “rolling an even number” are 2, 4, and 6.)
Favorable Outcomes
400
