Term | Definition |
Probability | A number from 0 to 1 (or 0% to 100%) that describes how likely an event is to occur. |
Experiment | In probability, any activity based on a chance, such as tossing a coin. |
Outcome | A possible result of a probability experiment. |
Equally like outcomes | Outcomes that have seen the same probability. |
Certain (probability) | Sure to happen; having a probability of 1. |
Impossible Probability | Can Never Happen; having a probability of 0. |
Experimental Probability | The ratio of the number of times an event occurs to the total number of trials, or times that the activity is performed. |
Trial | A single repletion or observation of an experiment |
Fundamental counting principal | if one event has m possible outcomes and a second event has n possible outcomes after the first event has occurred, then there are m x n total possible outcomes for the two events. |
Sample Space | all possible outcomes of an experiment |
Favorable outcome | An outcome you are looking for when conducting an experiment. |
Theoretical probability | The ratio of the number of equally likely outcomes in an event to the total number of possible outcomes |
Fair | When all outcomes of an experiment are equally likely, the experiment is said to be fair. |
Independent Event | Events for which the outcome of one event does not affect the probability of the other |
Dependent Event | Events for which the outcome of the first event affects the outcome of the second event. |
