Chapter Exam 1 EXPLORING PROBABILITY Learning Outcomes: To understand the difference between experimental and theoretical probability To use probability to make predictions Recall: 𝑃(𝑒𝑣𝑒𝑛𝑡) = 𝑛𝑢𝑚𝑏𝑒𝑟 𝑜𝑓 𝑜𝑢𝑡𝑐𝑜𝑚𝑒𝑠 𝑓𝑎𝑣𝑜𝑢𝑟𝑎𝑏𝑙𝑒 𝑡𝑜 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑒𝑣𝑒𝑛𝑡 𝑡𝑜𝑡𝑎𝑙 𝑛𝑢𝑚𝑏𝑒𝑟 𝑜𝑓 𝑜𝑢𝑡𝑐𝑜𝑚𝑒𝑠 𝑖𝑛 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑠𝑎𝑚𝑝𝑙𝑒 𝑠𝑝𝑎𝑐𝑒 Probability is expressed as a value between 0 and 1, not a percent. The set of all possible outcomes of a particular experiment is called the sample space. An event is any collection of possible outcomes of an experiment, that is, any subset of the sample space. A trial is any operation whose outcome cannot be predicted with certainty. An outcome is the result of carrying out an experiment. An impossible event will yield a probability of 0 and a certain event will yield a probability of 1. Complete the following investigation with a partner: You will need 2 dice and some graphing paper. You and your partner are playing a game. You roll two dice and determine the difference between the numbers rolled. Before you attempt any rolling of the dice, complete the following questions: 1. Predict the following: Which difference will occur the most often? Which difference will occur the least often? Which differences will occur equally often? 2 2. Complete the experiment. Roll two dice 36 times. Record the difference each time as a positive value. Record your values below. How closely do your results match your predictions? 3. Represent your results using a bar graph. 4. Determine the experimental probability for each difference as a fraction. Times occurred out of 36 3 5. Compare your results with another group’s experimental results. Were they similar? Combine the two sets of results, and repeat Part 4 for the combined results. How do these probabilities compare with those from part 4? 6. Copy and complete this outcome table. Record the differences as positive values. Differences in Rolls of Two Dice Die1/Die 2 1 1 0 2 3 4 5 6 2 3 4 5 6 7. Determine the theoretical probability of each difference as a fraction. How closely does the experimental probability match the theoretical probability? 𝑃(0) = , 𝑃(1) = 𝑃(4) = , , 𝑃(2) = 𝑃(5) = 4 , 𝑃(3) = , 𝑃(6) = , Investigation #2 With a partner, draw a tree diagram to show all the possible outcomes of rolling two regular sixsided dice: Outcomes for Two Dice 1. What is the total number of possible outcomes when rolling two six-sided dice? 2. How many outcomes have double numbers? 3. What is the probability of rolling two different numbers? Complementary event: of 6 4. Which difference is impossible? The event “rolling two different numbers” is called the complement of “rolling double numbers.” These two events are called complementary events. The probability of an event and the probability of the complement will always add up to 1. Events formed from repeated trials or from a combination of simple events are called compound events and often a table, chart, or tree diagram is useful in determining the sample space. 5 Ex. a. List the sample space of an experiment in which one coin is tossed and one six-sided die is rolled at the same time. Create a tree diagram H T b. Determine the probability of the event of tossing a head and rolling a 5. c. Determine the probability of the event of tossing a head and rolling either a 4 or a 2. The probability of an event can range from 0 (impossible) to 1 (certain). You can express probability as a fraction, a decimal, or a percent. Assignment: pg. 141 #1-4 6 PROBABILITY AND ODDS Learning Outcomes: To explain, using examples, the relationship between odd (part-part) and probability (part-whole) To be able to express odds as probability and vice versa To determine the probability of, or the odds for and against, an outcome in a situation To explain, using examples, how decisions may be based on probability or odds and on subjective judgments To solve a contextual problems that involves odds or probabilities You can calculate the chance, or probability that a particular event will happen by finding the ratio of the number of ways the event can occur to the number of possible outcomes. The probability of an event may be written as a fraction, decimal, or percent. When outcomes have an equal chance of occurring, they are equally likely. When an outcome is chosen without any preference, the outcome occurs at random. The odds of an event occurring is the ratio of the number of ways the event can occur (successes) to the number of ways the event cannot occur (failures). Odds = successes : failures As an example, out of 25 people, 10 are teens. The odds that a person is a teen would be 10 (successes) to 15 (failures). 10 : 15 Odds in favour: The ratio of the probability that an event will occur to the probability that the event will not occur, or the ratio of the number of favourable outcomes to the number of unfavourable outcomes. Odds against: The ratio of unfavourable outcomes to the number of favourable outcomes.

What are the odds of randomly selecting a dime from a dish containing 11 pennies, 6 nickels, 5 dimes, and 3 quarters? Total coins: 25, not dimes 25 – 5 = 20 ` Ex. a. Eleven poker chips are numbered consecutively 1 through 10, with two of them labeled with a 6 and placed in a jar. A chip is drawn at random. Find the probability of drawing a 6. b. What are the odds in favour of the event happening? c. What are the odds against the event happening? Ex. Suppose that the odds in favour of an event are 5:3. Is the probability that the event will happen greater or less than 50%? Total outcomes: 5 + 3 = 8 8 Ex. A hockey game has ended in a tie after a 5 min overtime period, so the winner will be decided by a shootout. The coach must decide whether Ellen or Brittany should go first in the shootout. The coach would prefer to use her best scorer first, so she will base her decision on the player’s shootout records. Player Ellen Brittany Attempts 13 17 Goals Scored 8 10 Who should go first? Find the percentage of success of each player: 𝐸𝑙𝑙𝑒𝑛: 𝐵𝑟𝑖𝑡𝑡𝑎𝑛𝑦: Ex. A group of grade 12 students are holding a charity carnival to support a local food bank. The students have created a dice game that they call Bim and a card game that they call Zap. The odds against winning Bim are 5:2, and the odds against winning Zap are 7:3. Which game should Nolan play? P(A’) is the probability of the complement of A, where P(A’) = 1 – P(A) If the probability of winning is 70%, the complementary event (opposite) would be the probability of losing, which is 100 – 70 = 30% Odds: Part : Part Probability: Part – whole Assignment: pg. 148-150 #1-16 9 PROBABILITIES USING COUNTING METHODS Learning Outcomes: Be able to solve a contextual problem that involves probability and permutations Be able to solve a contextual problem that involves combinations and probability Review: Factorial Notation: 𝑛! = 𝑛(𝑛 − 1)(𝑛 − 2)(𝑛 − 3) ….

Explain the difference between combinations and permutations: Permutations: order important Ex. Two cards are picked without replacement from a deck of 52 playing cards. Determine the probability that both are kings. Is order important? P( K1 and K 2 ) = favourable outcomes total outcomes Ex. The athletic council decides to form a sub-committee of seven council members to look at how funds raised should be spent on sports activities at the school. There are a total of 15 athletic council members, 9 males and 6 females. What is the probability that the sub-committee will consists of exactly 3 females? P(3F) = # of ways to choose exactly three females # of ways to choose the sub-committee 10 Ex. A bag of marbles contains 5 red, 3 green, and 6 blue marbles. If a child grabs three marbles from the bag, determine the probability that: a. exactly 2 are blue: P(2B)= P(2B and 1 other) = # of ways to choose 2 blue and 1 other # of ways to choose any three marbles a. at least one is blue: P(1B and 2 other) or P(2B and 1 other) or P(3B and 0 others) b. the first is red, the second is green and the third is blue: is order important?

For mutually exclusive events we are looking for the word “OR” Recall Venn Diagrams: A mutually exclusive event states that there are no common outcomes. How could a mutually exclusive event be represented using a Venn Diagram? How could a non-mutually exclusive event be represented using a Venn Diagram? 13 Investigation Consider the experiment of drawing a card from a regular a 52 card deck. Let the event A be “a heart is drawn” and event B be “a spade is drawn.” 1. Mark the outcomes to the experiment on the Venn Diagram which represents the sample space. Because these events have _____ common outcomes, we say the events A and B are _________ _______. Use the following formulas for the probability of the event 𝑨 ∪ 𝑩 If the events A, B are mutually exclusive, then: 𝑃(𝐴 ∪ 𝐵) = 𝑃(𝐴) + 𝑃(𝐵) If the events A, B are NOT mutually exclusive, then: 𝑃(𝐴 ∪ 𝐵) = 𝑃(𝐴) + 𝑃(𝐵) − 𝑃(𝐴 ∩ 𝐵) 2. Determine the P(A ∪ B) P (A or B) = P(A) + P(B) = 0.25 + 0.25 = 0.5 Basic strategies when dealing with mutually exclusive events: If mutually exclusive, add the individual probabilities If not mutually exclusive, a venn diagram is useful for organizing our information If you add the percentages when solving a problem and you find your solution is over 100% or 1, this will tell you that you are not dealing with a mutually exclusive event. Examples 1. State whether the events A and B are mutually exclusive or not. a) Experiment – a card is drawn from a standard deck Event A – a face card is selected Event B – a diamond is selected Ask: Do the two events have anything in __________________? 14 b) Experiment – two dice are thrown Event A – the dice both show the same value Event B – the total score is 8 c) Experiment – two dice are thrown Event A – the dice both show the same value Event B – the total score is 9 2. A single die is rolled. What is the probability of rolling a 2 or a 6? P(2) + P(6) = 3. A single card is drawn from a standard deck of cards. What is the probability of drawing a red card or a black queen? 4.

Suppose that Jocelyn replaced the first chip before drawing the second chip. Would the probability of the second chip being defective remain the same? 9. When determining the probability of drawing two defective chips, Jocelyn did not consider the probability that the first chip she drew would not be defective. Explain why. 10. Explain why the probability of drawing a defective chip on the second draw is considered a conditional probability. 19 11. Go back to the tree diagram drawn on step 1. Label each branch with its probability. Determine the probability of drawing each permutation of defective and not defective chips, then add these probabilities. What does the sum imply? Def/Def: Def/NDef: NDef/Def: NDef/NDef: Dependent Events: Events whose outcomes are affected by each other. Conditional Probability: The probability of an event occurring given that another event has already occurred. If event B depends on event A occurring, then the conditional probability that event B will occur, given that event A, has occurred, can be represented as follows: 𝑃(𝐵\𝐴) = 𝑃(𝐴 ∩ 𝐵) 𝑃(𝐴) If event B depends on event A occurring, then the probability that both events will occur can be represented as follows: 𝑃(𝐴 ∩ 𝐵) = 𝑃(𝐴) ∙ 𝑃(𝐵\𝐴) 20 Ex. According to a survey, 91% of Canadians own a cellphone. Of these people, 42% have a smartphone.

Situation 1 Drawing two cards from a deck without replacement A: The first card is a spade B: The second is a spade Situation 2 Drawing two cards from a deck with replacement A: The first card is a spade B: The second is a spade How many cards were in the deck on the first draw? How many cards were in the deck on the first draw? How many of these cards were spades? How many of these cards were spades? How many cards were in the deck on the second draw? How many cards were in the deck on the second draw? How many of these cards were spades? How many of these cards were spades? Calculate P(A and B) Calculate P(A and B) These are dependent events These are independent events With a partner, explain the differences between a dependent and independent event. 23 Dependent Events: Two events are dependent if after the first event has occurred, it effects the probability of the other event occurring. The probability of event B depends on whether or not event A occurred. Independent Events: Two events are independent if after the first event has occurred it has no effect on the probability of the second event occurring. The probability of event B does not depend on whether or not event A occurred. To determine the probability of two events occurring we can use the formula: P(A and B) = P(A) x P(B) NOTE: If the events are dependent, you must account for this in the probability of event B Ex. The probability that Ashley will pass Math this semester is 0.7 and the probability that she will pass English this semester is 0.9. If these events are independent, determine the following to the nearest hundredth: a. Ashley will pass math and English b. Ashley will pass math but not English c. Ashley will pass English but not Math d. Ashley will pass neither 24 Ex. Wayne and Kelly are playing a die and coin game. Each turn consists of rolling a regular die and tossing a coin.
