9391548156 | Random | Individual outcomes are uncertain, however there is a regular distribution of outcomes after a large # of repetitions (not haphazard) | 0 | |
9391548157 | Independent | The outcome of one trial does not influence/effect the outcome of any other trial | 1 | |
9391548158 | Sample Space | The set of all possible outcomes. Can be presented as a list of ordered pairs or a tree diagram | 2 | |
9391548159 | With replacement the denominator is... | Constant | 3 | |
9391548160 | Without replacement the denominator will... | Change | 4 | |
9391548161 | Multiplication Principle | If you can do one task in "n" ways and a second task in "m" ways, both tasks can be done in "n•m" ways | 5 | |
9391548162 | Or | Addition | 6 | |
9391548163 | Add (not in a marginal distribution) | Multiply | 7 | |
9391548164 | Add (in a marginal distribution) | Find the intersection of a row and a column | 8 | |
9391548165 | Event | An outcome or set of outcomes of a random phenomenon. It is a subset of the sample space. | 9 | |
9391548166 | Probability Rules | 1) 0 | 10 | |
9391548167 | 0 | Impossible case | 11 | |
9391548168 | 1 | Certain case | 12 | |
9391548169 | Complement Rule | P(A'), P(Ā), P(Ac) all equal 1-P(A) | 13 | |
9391548170 | Addition Rule for Disjoint Events | P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B) | 14 | |
9391548171 | Disjoint | No outcomes in common | 15 | |
9391548172 | Multiplication Rule | If A and B are independent events then the P(A and B) = P(A) • P(B) | 16 | |
9391548173 | Essential Part to Answering A Probability Question | Probability notation (ex: P( ) | 17 | |
9391548174 | Universe | Box around the Venn Diagram, represents all possible events | 18 | |
9391548175 | Overlap | Middle part of Venn Diagram, events in both circles, enter this part first | 19 | |
9391548176 | Remaining Events | The number in the bottom corner, the probability that none of the lisited events happen | 20 | |
9391548177 | Joint Events | Simultaneous occurrence of 2 events | 21 | |
9391548178 | Joint Probability | The likelihood of a joint event | 22 | |
9391548179 | U | Or | 23 | |
9391548180 | ∩ | And | 24 | |
9391548181 | Conditional Probability | The probability of one event under the condition that another event is known. When P(A)>0, the conditional probability of event B given A is P(B|A)=P(A and B)/P(A) | 25 | |
9391548182 | P(B and A) = | P(B|A) • P(A) | 26 | |
9391548183 | If there is no condition in a marginal distribution... | The denominator is the TT | 27 | |
9391548184 | TT | Table total, must be labeled | 28 | |
9391548185 | | | Given that | 29 | |
9391548186 | Disjoint Events | 1) Have no outcomes in common 2) Cannot be independent 3) Cannot occur at the same time 4) Have an intersection that is the "empty set" | 30 | |
9391548187 | If events A and B are disjoint, then P(A|B) = | 0 (because if one is has occurred, the other isn't happening) | 31 | |
9391548188 | Independent Events | 1) Cannot be disjoint 2) Means that the outcome of one event does not influence the outcome of any other event | 32 | |
9391548189 | If events A and B are independent, then P(A|B)= | P(A) | 33 | |
9391548190 | P(A u B) | P(A) + P(B) - P(A ∩ B) | 34 | |
9391548191 | P(A|B) | P(A and B) P(B) | 35 | |
9391548192 | In a marginal distribution, "and" means... | Look for the intersection of a row and column | 36 | |
9391548193 | P of the sample space is... | 1 | 37 | |
9391548194 | All P must be | 0 | 38 | |
9391548195 | The joint probability must be smaller than... | The individual probabilities | 39 | |
9391548196 | 2 way tables are always used for... | Dependent events | 40 |

Need Notes?
While we strive to provide the most comprehensive notes for as many high school textbooks as possible, there are certainly going to be some that we miss. Drop us a note and let us know which textbooks you need. Be sure to include which edition of the textbook you are using! If we see enough demand, we'll do whatever we can to get those notes up on the site for you!
