Question
Answer
a phenomenon is random if   individual uotcomes are uncertain but there is nonetheless a regular distribition of outcomes in a large number of repetitions  
🗑
the probability of any outcome of a random phenomenon is   the proportion of times the outcome would occur in a very long series of repetitions  
🗑
multiple counting principle   if a choice consists of two steps of which the first can be made in m ways and for each of these the second can be made in n ways, then the whole choice can be made in mn ways  
🗑
sample space   the set of all possible outcomes of a random experiment  
🗑
elemtn   each individual outcome in the sample space  
🗑
event   a subset of the sample space  
🗑
relative frequencies are often used   to estimate probability  
🗑
mutually exclusive events   two events that have no element in common  
🗑
a union b   is the set of elemnts which belong to set a OR b or both  
🗑
a intersect b   is the set of elements which belong to set a AND b  
🗑
A' is   teh set of elemnts that are NOT in set a but are in the sample space  
🗑
the probability p(a) of any event is always   a number between 0 and 1 inclusive.  
🗑
an event with the probability 0 is   impossible  
🗑
event with a probaility 1 is   certain  
🗑
if s is the sample space   then p(s)=1  
🗑
complement rule   P(A')= 1-p(a)  
🗑
addition rule for mutaully exclude events   if a and b are disjoint events then P(AUB)=(PA)+P(B)  
🗑
two events are independt if   knowing that one occurs does not change the probality that the other occurs  
🗑
if A and B are independent events then P (A and B)=   P(A) P(B)  
🗑
general addition rule for porbability   P (AUB)=P(A)+P(B)-P (AnB)  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
