LATEST UPDATE.
1. sample space - Correct answer set of all possible outcomes for an
experiment
2. {1,2,3,4,5,6} - Correct answer the sample space for rolling a
standard die
3. experimental (empirical) probability - Correct answer relative
frequency; probability will change from case to case (probability of
male students in a class will change if you go to another class)
4. law of large numbers - Correct answer if you conduct experiment
more and more times, the closer the experimental probability will get
to the theoretical probability
5. outcomes - Correct answer experiment is an activity whose results
are _____________
6. complementary events - Correct answer 2 mutually exclusive events
whose union is the sample space
7. mutually exclusive events - Correct answer if event A occurs, B
cannot occur
, 8. independent events - Correct answer when occurrence or
nonoccurence of event A has no influence on the outcome of event B
9. multiplication rule for probabilities for tree diagrams - Correct answer
for all multistage experiments, the probability of the outcome along
any path of a tree diagram is equal to the product of all probabilities
along the path
10. an=a1+(n-1)d - Correct answer equation for finding nth term in
an arithmetic sequence
11. an=a1(r^n-1) - Correct answer equation for finding nth term in
a geometric sequence
12. S(n)=(a1+an/2)n - Correct answer equation for sum of n terms
in an arithmetic sequence
13. S(n)=a1(1-r^n/1-r) - Correct answer equation for sum of n
terms in a geometric sequence n
14. P(certain event)=1 - Correct answer the probability of a certain
event
15. P(impossible event)=0 - Correct answer the probability of an
impossible event
