A stack of 40 movies includes the following types: 12 animated, 9 sci-fi, 8 documentaries, 6 action, 4 comedy and 1 mystery.
What is the probability of randomly selecting an animated or a mystery?
P(animated) + P(m)
The probability of a(n) ________________________ event is 0.
impossible
Does an outlier affect the mean, mode, or median the most?
MEAN
This type of graph is called a dot plot.
true
A keypad only has the numbers 1-6.
What is the total number of possible outcomes if the code has 3 numbers? *******************
6P3
so (6)(5)(4) = 120
What is the probability of spinning a 3 or a 7?
P(3) + P(7)
What type of event is composed of two or more separate events? ******************
Compound Event
A baseball team had the following scores for the start of the season: 4, 2, 3, 0, 8, 1, 2, 6, 4, 3, 4, 1
What is the mean score of the baseball team?
38/12 = 3.2
The mode is 6.
False: it's 1
Jar A contains the 7 letters in the word science.
Jar B contains the 10 letters in the word literature.
What is the probability of randomly drawing:
an i from Jar A, then an i from Jar B
P(i) x P(i)
(1/7) x (1/10) = 1/70
What is the probability of spinning a 9 and then a 1?
P(9) x P(1)
What type of events cannot happen at the same time?
Mutually Exclusive
A baseball team had the following scores for the start of the season: 4, 2, 3, 0, 8, 1, 2, 6, 4, 3, 4, 1
What is the median score of the team?
3
The sum of a group of probabilities should equal 1 (or 100%). ********************
true
A jar contains the 7 letters in the word science. What is the probability of randomly drawing:
a consonant, not replacing it, and then a vowel? **************************
P(con) x P(vowel after 1st draw)
P(4/7) x P(3/6) = 12/42 = 2/7
A stack of 40 movies includes the following types: 12 animated, 9 sci-fi, 8 documentaries, 6 action, 4 comedy and 1 mystery.
What is the probability of randomly selecting an action, not replacing it, and then a documentary? *********************
P(action) x P(doc after 1st draw)
TRIVIA: Take or pass (math trivia)
What is the branch of math that deals with shapes, measurements, points, lines, and angles?
What is the MODE for this list of class sizes?*********************
12, 10, 10, 12, 12, 12, 13, 14, 10, 12, 16, 12, 10, 12, 10, 13, 14, 18, 9, 10, 10, 15, 12,
12
Addition is used to find the probability of two events joined by “and”.
False, OR is addition
AND is multiplication
Jar B contains the 10 letters in the word literature.
What is the probability of randomly drawing:
an a from Jar B and then an e from Jar B without replacing the a
P(a) x P(e)
1/10 x 2/9 = 2/90 = 1/45
My bag contains 4 chocolates, 3 suckers, and 8 peppermints.
What's the probability of randomly drawing a chocolate, eating it, drawing another chocolate, eating is also, and then drawing a peppermint?
P(c) x P(c after 1st) x P(p after 2nd)
4/15 x 3/14 x 8/13
The branch of mathematics in which data is collected and studied.
Statistics
The test scores for the Chapter 8 test were:
100, 70, 74, 80, 85, 99, 92, 0, and 88.
1. Is there an outlier? If so, what is it?
2. Would the mean or median more accurately represent this data?
1. the 0 is the outlier.
2. Median, because the mean is sensitive to outliers.
An example of a dependent event is pulling candy out of a dish, eating it, then pulling out more candy, etc
TRUE!
