Term | Definition |
Complementary Event | Two events in which either outcome must happen, but cannot happen at the same time; sum of the probability and its complement is 100% |
Compound Event | Two or more independent events considered together |
Counting Principle | If event M has "m" possible outcomes and event N has "n" possible outcomes, then event M followed by event N has (m*n) possible outcomes |
Dependent Event | When the outcome of one event depends on the outcome of another |
Experimental Probability | What actually happens when conducting a probability event |
Independent Event | When the outcome of one event does not affect the outcome of other events |
Outcome | A possible result in an experiment; the way an event turns out |
Permutation | An arrangement or listing of objects in which order is important |
Probability | The chance that a particular outcome will occur, measured as a ratio of the total possible outcomes |
Sample Space | The set of all possible outcomes of a random process |
Simulation | Carrying out a simple experiment to collect data |
Simple Event | An event that consists of exactly one outcome |
Theoretical Probability | What should happen when conducting a probability experiment |
Tree Diagram | A diagram shaped like a tree used to display sample space by using one branch for each possible outcome |
Uniform Probability Model | each outcome has an equal probability of happening |
