Real World Probability
A spinner has 4 equal sections colored
blue, yellow, green, and red. What are the chances of landing on blue after spinning the spinner?Experiment: spinning the
spinner.Outcome: possibilities (yellow,
blue, green or red).Event: Landing on blue.Probability: Favorable event /
possible outcomes.
Applying Vocabulary
ProbabilityWhat is probability?
The likelihood of an event occurring.
Probability = _______________________
What are the odds of flipping a coin and landing on heads?
Theoretical ProbabilityWhen all possible events or outcomes are equally likely to occur, the theoretical probability can be found without collecting data from an experiment.
When you flip a coin there are two possible outcomes
P (event) =Number of favorable outcomes
Total number of possible outcomes
Experimental ProbabilityData is collected through observations or experiments.
Each result from the experiment is called an event.
The probability of an event is equal to the number of times an event occurs divided by the total number of experiments.
P (event) =Number of times an event occurs
Total number of experiments
P (event) =Number of times an event occurs
Total number of experiments
Experimental Probability
Event = scoring a basket
Number of baskets scoredNumber of shots taken

PROBLEM: How many options are there of picking a number from 1 to 5 and choosing the color red, white, or blue?
Now determine how many options there are for the second item
There are 3 options:Red
White
Blue
PROBLEM: How many options are there of picking a number from 1 to 5 and choosing the color red, white, or blue?
Draw “branches” off of each number. One for each second item, in this case 3.

What is it?An event that consists of two or more simple
events.
Steps:*Determine all outcomes for each event.*Multiply number of outcomes.*Find all favorable events.
Compound Events
Two events, A and B, are independent if the fact that A occurs does not affect the probability of B occurring.Landing on heads after tossing a coin AND
rolling a 5 on a single 6-sided die. Choosing a marble from a jar AND landing on
heads after tossing a coin. Choosing a 3 from a deck of cards, replacing it,
AND then choosing an ace as the second card. Rolling a 4 on a single 6-sided die, AND then
rolling a 1 on a second roll of the die.
Independent Events
Multiplication Rule : When two events, A and B, are independent, the probability of both occurring is: P(A and B) = P(A) · P(B)
Independent Events
Each spinner is divided into equal sections. The two spinners are spun together . What is the probability of landing on blue and an even number?
Independent Event

Two events are dependent if the outcome or occurrence of the first affects the outcome or occurrence of the second so that the probability is changed.
Multiplication Rule 2: When two events, A and B, are dependent, the probability of both occurring is: P(A and B) = P(A) · P(B|A)
Experiment 1: A card is chosen at random from a standard deck of 52 playing cards. Without replacing it, a second card is chosen. What is the probability that the first card chosen is a queen and the second card chosen is a jack?
