Compound Events

Defining Success

Defining Success - Probability Models: Uniform or Non-Uniform1In this lesson you will

find probabilities of compound events using organized lists, tables, tree diagrams, and simulation.

2You will understand that, just as with simple events, the probability of a compound event is the fraction of outcomes in the sample space for which the compound event occurs.

You will also represent sample spaces for compound events using methods such as organized lists, tables and tree diagrams. For an event described in everyday language, we will identify the outcomes in the sample space which compose the event, for example rolling double sixes.

design and use a simulation to generate frequencies for compound events.
