AP STATS CH5
| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| Random process | Generates outcomes that are determined purely by chance. |
| Probability | A number between 0 and 1 that describes the proportion of times the outcome would occur in a very long series of trials. |
| Law of Large #'s | More trials of any random process, the proportion of times that a specific outcome occurs approaches its probability |
| Simulation | Imitates a random process in such a way that simulated outcomes are consistent with real-world outcomes. |
| Simulation process | Describe using a random process to perform one simulation trial. Tell what you will record at the end of each trial. Perform many trials of simulation. Use simulation results to answer the question of interest. |
| Probability Model | A description of a random process consisting two parts: A list of all possible outcomes and the probability for each outcome |
| Sample space | A list of all possible outcomes |
| Event | Collection of outcomes from a random process |
| Complement rule | P(A^c)=1-P(A) where A^c is the complement of A |
| Mutually exclusive | When two events don't have outcomes in common and can never occur together so P(A and B) = 0 |
| Addition Rule for mutually exclusive | P(A or B)=P(A)+P(B) |
| General Addition Rule | If A and B are any two events resulting from some random process, then P(A or B)=P(A)+P(B)-P(A and B) |
| Venn Diagram | Consists of one or more circles surrounded by a rectangle. Each circle represents an event. The region inside the rectangle represents the sample space of the random process. |
| Intersection | A AND B denoted (∩) |
| Union | A OR B denoted (U) |
