What is Experimental Probability?

Back

Experimental Probability is what actually happens.

Front

How do you calculate the probability of an event given a condition?

Back

Use the formula P(A|B) = P(A and B) / P(B).

Front

In a box with 3 blue marbles, 5 red marbles, and 4 white marbles, what is P(blue | not white)?

Back

P(blue | not white) = 3/8.

Front

What does the shaded region in a Venn diagram represent when it shows A and not B?

Back

It represents the elements that are in set A but not in set B.

Front

How do you find the total number of outcomes in a probability experiment?

Back

Count all possible outcomes in the sample space.

Front

What is the formula for calculating the probability of an event?

Back

P(Event) = Number of favorable outcomes / Total number of outcomes.

Front

If P(Pizza|Senior) = 2/3, what does this mean?

Back

It means that 2 out of 3 seniors prefer pizza.

Front

What is a Venn diagram used for in probability?

Back

A Venn diagram is used to show the relationships between different sets.

Front

How do you determine the probability of independent events?

Back

Multiply the probabilities of each event: P(A and B) = P(A) * P(B).

Front

What is the difference between theoretical and experimental probability?

Back

Theoretical probability is based on expected outcomes, while experimental probability is based on actual outcomes.
