This is the definition of a sample space.
What is the set of all possible outcomes?
100
This is the formula for finding theoretical probability.
What is the number of favorable outcomes over the total number of possible outcomes.
100
This is the difference between a sample and a population
What is that the sample is a part of the population (smaller).
100
A compound event is....
What is two or more events together.
100
This is the difference between a sample space and an event.
What is a sample space is the set of outcomes while an event is just a single occurrence.
200
This is a visual representation of all possible outcomes of an event.
What is a tree diagram?
200
This is the formula for experimental probability
What is the number of times an event occurs over the total number of trials?
200
If you have a 60% chance of making a free throw, and you take 50 free throws, this is how many you are predicted to make
What is 30 free throws.
200
This is the difference between a dependent and independent event.
What is an independent event is unaffected by the probability of other events.
200
Theoretical and experimental probabilities are always/sometimes/never the same.
What is sometimes.
300
This how the counting principle is used.
What is to find the total number of combinations when given 2 or more different choices.
300
The probability of an event plus the probability of it's compliment is equal to this.
What is 1.
300
This is the formula for predicting outcomes.
What is P(event) * total number of trials.
300
The formula for finding the probability of compound independent events is....
What is P(A, then B) = P(A) x P(B)?
300
If you are asked to predict a number of outcomes, what is a good way to identify the POPULATION in the problem.
What is it is usually the largest number.
400
This is when it is more convenient to use the counting principle instead of a tree diagram.
What is when you have many possible outcomes.
400
You roll a dice 12 times and two of the rolls land on 1. Is the experimental probability greater than, equal to, or less than the theoretical probability?
What is equal to?

A company makes 1000 cars. They test 100 of them and find that 3 have defects. The SAMPLE in this problem is....
What is 100 cars?

You pick 3 cards at random from a deck without replacing them. These are ___________ events. You would could change the type of event by doing this....
What is dependent? What is replacing the cards?
400
The best way to identify dependent events is by seeing this phrase in a problem.
What is without replacing.
500
If there are 4 flavors of ice cream, 2 different cones, and 8 toppings, this is how many total combinations of flavor, toppings, and cones there are.
What is 64 combinations?

Give a real life example that compares theoretical probability versus experimental probability.
Answers vary.

A class of 25 students takes an exam. 5 students receive a C in this class. If 100 students take the test, this is how many we predict to receive a C.
What is 20 students.
