Probability: The chance that something will happen.
http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/probability

Is it possible to an Example of these Ex. Formula or real life situation for clear understanding of these words
Delete• Example or explanation of infinite (having no limit)
Delete1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20…
Suppose this was an infinite set of numbers it would not just stop at twenty it would go on forever never ending.
• Example or explanation of outcome
Head is a possible outcome when a coin is tossed, so is tail.
• Example or explanation of random
If I had a hat full of names and I pulled one out without looking in the hat or at any of the names that would be random because I have no idea what name I am going to pull out of the hat.
• Example or explanation of subset
If there were a set of boxes each with marbles in them, the subset would be the secondary set of items in this case the marbles inside the boxes
1.Finite (of a set of elements) capable of being completely counted, Real and complex numbers that are not limited or bound
ReplyDeleteReal numbers Ex. [ 2 ,3 ,-2 ,3/4, 2/4, 0.5]
complex numbers Ex [ 12+√̅-3 ,2+5i , -3 x 61, 4] Brief summary of Formula (a+bi)
"A" and "B" are real numbers and "I" imaginary number

2.Random -proceeding, made, or occurring without definite aim, reason, or pattern: the random selection of numbers.
3. Odds in favor of an event = number of favorable outcomes : number of unfavorable outcomes.
Ex.the odds in favor of rolling a 2 on a fair six-sided die are 1 : 6 or 1/6

4.overlapping event- To have one or more elements in common. Used of sets
5.Combination-the act of combining or the state of being combined.
Ex. •Repetition: such as coins in your pocket (5,5,5,10,10) and
•No Repetition: such as lottery numbers (2,14,15,27,30,33)
Note: with combination the order doesn't matter but if we want repetition with our combination we must range numbers or set in order.

1) Venn Diagram - is a diagram using circles to represent sets, and the overlap of the circles indicates the relationship between the sets.
ReplyDelete- source : http://www.mathsisfun.com/sets/venn-diagrams.htm
2) Disjoint - having no elements in common (independent).
- source : http://www.lemars.k12.ia.us/webfiles/mboyd/Pre-Algebra%20Textbook%20(e-edition)/Source/J9D11HBD.pdf
3) Variability - is like the quality, state, or degree of being variable or changeable OR it could refer to how "spread out" a group of scores is OR it could be an indication of how widely spread or closely clustered the data values are. For example, Range, minimum and maximum values, and clusters in distribution give some indication of variability.

4) Tree Diagrams - it's that diagram we did in class on Thursday with the Heads & Tails coin flip ... a tree diagram shows all of the possible outcomes of an event and all the possible outcomes of an event are shown by a tree diagram.

5) Independent Events - if two events are independent, it means that the occurrence of one does not affect the probability of the other. Independent events are not affected by the previous events.

Factorial:Factorials are very simple things. They're just products, indicated by an exclamation mark. For instance, "four factorial" is written as "4!" and means 1×2×3×4 = 24. In general, n! ("enn factorial") means the product of all the whole numbers from 1 to n; that is, n! = 1×2×3×...×n.
