Students will be able to:
Organize information about a compound event on a table, a tree diagram, or an organized list.
Find the probability of a compound event.
A model, such as a table, organized list, or tree diagram, can represent the sample space of a compound event. The sample space can then be used to determine the probability of a favorable outcome.
FINDING PROBABILITY OF A COMPOUND EVENT
The probability of a compound event can be represented by a ratio of the
number of favorable outcomes to the total number of possible equally likely
outcomes. You can use an organized list, a table, or a tree diagram to determine
the number of favorable outcomes and the total number of possible outcomes.
