    Unit 6: Probability

    Lesson 2: Probability of Simple Events

  • Slide 2
    Report an issue

    Vocabulary

    • Probability: The likelihood of an action or event happening during an experiment

    • Favorable Outcomes: What we want to happen in an event

  • Slide 3
    Report an issue

    How to calculate probability

    • Step 1: List out the Sample Space, and Determine the total number of outcomes

    • Step 2: Determine the number of ways our Favorable outcome can occur

    • Step 3: Create a Ratio with favorable over total

  • Question 4

    What is the probability of landing on heads if you toss a coin?

    answer choices

    1/2

    1/3

    1/6

    2/2

    Probability Scale

    • 0% = Impossible to happen

    • 25% = Unlikely

    • 50% = Even Change

    • 75% = Likely

    • 100% = Certain

  • Slide 7

    Probability Scale Examples

    • The likely hood of rolling a 0 on a number cube is 0% so it is impossible

    • The likely hood of getting heads is 50%, so it has an even chance

    • The likely hood of rolling a number >0 is 100% so it is certain

  • Question 8

    Q.

    What is the Probability of rolling a 4 or P(4)?

    answer choices

    1/4

    1/5

    1/6

    1/2

  • Question 9
    30 seconds
    Report an issue
    Q.

    What is the likely hood of rolling an even number or p(even)?

    answer choices

    1/6; unlikely

    0/6; impossible

    6/6; certain

    3/6; Evenly Likely

    "OR" = addition

    • Sometimes you will have probabilities asking for Event 1 or Event 2

    • To solve these problems you will find the event probability for each

    • Then ADD them!

    Complement Events

    Are 2 events in which EITHER one or the other MUST happen, but they CANNOT happen at the same time.

  • Slide 14
    Report an issue

    How do you know if it is a complement problem?

    • When it says: Not [event]

    • Ex: What is the probability of Not rolling a number greater than 4?

    • Ex: P(Not greater than 4)

  • Question 15

    Q.

    What is the probability of Not spinning blue?

    answer choices

    P(Not Blue) = 1/4

    P(Not Blue) = 1/2

    P(Not Blue) = 2/3

    P(Not Blue) = 3/4
