Mod 9 Vocab

QuestionAnswer
complementary event two outcomes where one must occur, and the other definitely does not, covering all possibilities in a sample space
compound event involves two or more simple events occurring together
event a set of one or more outcomes from a random experiment
experimental probability the likelihood of an event occurring based on actual data, experiments, or trials rather than theoretical calculations
likelihood a function that measures how well a specific statistical model or parameter value explains observed data
outcome a possible result of a single trial, experiment, or probability scenario
probability the branch that measures the likelihood of an event occurring, expressed as a number between 0 (impossible) and 1 (certain)
probability experiment a repeatable procedure with a well-defined set of possible outcomes, where the specific result is uncertain
relative frequency the ratio of the number of times a specific event or value occurs to the total number of outcomes or trials in a data set
relative frequency bar graph a data visualization that represents the proportion or percentage of the total data points for each category, rather than the raw count (frequency)
relative frequency table a data display tool that shows the proportion, ratio, or percentage of the total data set that falls into each category
sample space the set of all possible outcomes of a random probability experiment or event
simple event a single outcome from an experiment, calculated by dividing the number of favorable outcomes by the total possible outcomes
simulation an imitation of a real-world process or system using mathematical models and logic, often executed via computer to predict behavior
theoretical probability the mathematical likelihood of an event occurring based on reasoning and structure, rather than experimentation
theoretical probability of a compound event the calculated likelihood of two or more independent or dependent events occurring together, determined by dividing the number of favorable outcomes by the total possible outcomes
tree diagram a visual tool used to map out all possible outcomes of a sequence of events or experiments
uniform probability model a probability distribution where all possible outcomes in a sample space are equally likely to occur

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
