| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Experimental Probablity | is probablility based on data collected from repeated trials |
| A toy car manufactor inspected 2000 toy cars at random. The manufactor found no defects in 1899 toy cars. What is the probablity that a car selected at random had no defects? Write the probability as a percent. | Experimental Probablitity: 1899/2000= 0.9495= 94.95= 95% |
| Theoretical Probability | P(event= number of favorable outcomes/number of possible outcomes |
| Suppose a bag contains 2 black, 3 blue, 3 green and 2 red marbles. 1-What is the probability of reaching into the bag randomely selecting a red marble? 2-What is the probability of randomly selecting a red or black marble? | Theroretical Probability: 1- 2/10=1/5 (1.0/5=.2= 20%) 2- 4/10=2/5=.4= 40% |
| Geometric Probability | Desired outcome/Total outcome |
| You purchase 1 raffet ticket. 500 are sold. What is the probablitites? | P (Win) = 1/500, P (loss)= 499/500 |
| Tickets sold by class: 9th grade 500 blue tickets 10th grade 650 red tickets 11th grade 700 green tickets What is the probability that the winning ticket was sold by an 11th grader? | P= 700/ (500+650+700)= 700/1850 |
| Mutually Exclusive Events | can't occur at the same time |
| If A+B are mutually exclusive events then... | P(A or B)=P (A)+P(B) |
| If A+B are not mutually exclusive events then... | P(A or B)= P(A)+P(B)-P(A and B) |
| 24% of the students at the local high school are seniors, 16% are juniors, 34% are sophomores and 26% are freshmen. If a student is chosen at random from school, what is the probability the student is a senior or a junior? | Mutually Exclusive P(senior or junior)= P(senior) + P (Junior) = .24 + .16 = .40 = 40% |
| There are 5 types of fish in the tank at the pet store. 10% of the fish are tiger-striped, 20% are angelfish, 15% are catfish, 30% are tetras, & 25% are zebra fish. What is the probability that Joe gets a zebra fish or a tiger-striped fish? | Mutually Exclusive P(zebra or tiger)= P(zebra)+P(tiger) = .25 + .10 = .35 = 35 % |
| Dependent Events | Affect each other P(A then B)=P(A) P(B after A) |
| A bag contains 6 red and 4 blue marbles. What is the probability of randomly selecting a red, then a blue marble, without replacing the first? | Dependent Event P(red)=6/10 =3/5 P(blue after red)=4/9 P(A) x P(B after A) 3/5 x 4/9= 12/45 = 4/15 |
| Independent Events | Dont influence each other |
| Suppose the letter tiles shown were despoited in a bag. What is the probability of randomly selecting an I and a U? | Independent Event P(I)=2/15 P(U)=2/15 P(I+U)= 2/15 x 2/15= 4/225 |
| Tree Diagram | Suppose you go to a deli which has 3 types of bread, 3 types of meat for possible sandwich combinations. How many combinations can you make? (Answer 9) |
| Counting Principle | When tree diagram is to big (M x N) |
| At the weeding there are 5 salad choices, followed by 6 choices for the main course. How many ways can you choose a salad folloed by a main course? | Counting Principle (5 x 6=30 choices) |
| Chandy throws an even fancier wedding and serves a 5 course meal. There are 3 choices for each course. How many different meals can be chosen? | 1 2 3 4 5 = courses 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 = 243 meals |
| Find the number of permutations possible for the letters NESTA. | N E S T A 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1= 120 |
| Sam, Janet, and Bob wait in line for a concert. In how many wasy could the 3 of thme line up? | 3 x 2 x 1=6 |
| Permutations | nPr= n (n-1)(n-2)... Order Matters!!! |
| Simplify 8P5 | n=8, r=5 8(8-1)(8-2)(8-3)(8-4) 8 x 7 x 6 x 5 x 4 6720 |
| Combinations | Order doesn't matter!! |
| Combinations | nCr= n! ______ r!(n-r)! |
| A 3 person committe is to be chosen from a group of 15 students. In how many ways can the students be chosen? | 15C3 Answer... 455 |
| nCr | Stand for the number of cominations of n objects chosen r at a time |
| nCr | nPr --- rPr |
| There are 7 pizza toppins, you can choose 3. | n=7 r=3 7C3=7P3=7 x 6 x 5= 210 --- --------- 3P3 3 x 2 x 1 =6 = 35 |
| Mean | add them all up and divide by # |
| Mode | # that accures the most |
| Median | Middle # |
| Additives | How many # were added |
| IQR | Q3(median) - Q1(median) |
| Variance | All the numbers individually subtract the mean, then squared. Total them then divided by the additives |
| Standard Deviance | Variance square root |
| Solving cryptarithm | Guess and check |
| The sum of two consecutive terms in arithmetic sequence 2,7, 12, 17... 499. Find the 2 terms. | n=the first n+5= second term n + n + 5= 499 2n + 5 =499 2n = 494 n=247, n+5=252 |
| Communtative Property | When tow numbers are added, the sum is the same regardless of the order of the addends. For example 4+2=2+4 |
| Associative Property | When three or more numbers are added, the sum is the same regardless of the grouping of the addends. For example (2+3)+4=2+(3+4) |
| Additive Identity Property | The sum of any number and zero is the original number. For example 5+0=5 |
| Distributive Property | The sum of two numbers times a third number is equal to the sum of each addend times the third number. For example 4 x (6+3)=4 x 6 + 4 x 3 |
| 0/x=0 | All intergers except 0 |
| x-10x=-9x -9x=-9x | All intergers |
| x2=-49 | No solution is possible |
| (-x)3 | Neither |
