Probability Program:

Activity 1

Word
Explanation
Images/notes
Chance
The chance of a particular outcome will occur✔
Image result for probability chance
Probability
How likely something is to happen✔
Image result for probability
Unlikely
A event not likely to happen✔
Image result for probability unlikely
Equally Likely
There’s an even chance that something could happen✔
Image result for probability Equally Likely
Impossible
The event will never happen✔
Image result for probability Impossible
Probability Scale
Probability Scale has numbers from 0/Impossible - 1/Certain✔
Image result for Probability scale
Theoretical Probability
We use our theory of knowledge ✔
We use our theory of knowledge ✔
Practical Probability
Test the experiment✔
Test the experiment✔




Activity 2

Sample Space
When you list out all the outcomes:✔
Coin - H, T✔
Season - Winter, Summer, Autumn, Spring✔
Days of the week - Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday✔
RISE poster - Respect, Integrity, Success, Responsibility

Activity 4











Use the spinner above to answer theoretical probability questions.

P(1)= ⅛✔
P(Red) = ⅜
P(odd number) = 4/8 ✔
P(less than 5) = 4/8✔
P(multiple of 3) = 2/8✔
P(factors of 8) = 4/8✔

Spin the basic spinner 40 times to answer practical probability questions









P(orange) = ¼ ✔
P(not blue) = ¾ ✔
P(grey or pink) = 2/4 ✔
P(white) = 0/4 ✔

Compare answers above with theoretical data if you had to spin the same spinner 40

P(orange) = 25%✔
P(not blue) = 75%✔
P(grey or pink) = 50%✔
P(white) = 0%✔


Activity 5

P(Male is married) = 7/10
P(Female is married) = 3/10
P(Choosing someone who is single) = 1 Whole 1/10
Mrs Dunn Flips a coin twice and says that she will either get  heads, 2 tails or 1 head and 1 tail because there are 3 outcomes, the

P(H,H) = ⅓
P(H,T in any order) = ⅓
P(T,T) = ⅓
Draw a probability tree for theoretical probability and explain…

My Reflection and experience!!!
From my personal experience, I would have to say that my reason about this whole entire topic was really excellent. Because I currently got to work together with my class and my teacher (Mrs Dunn). But out of all topics I would have to say that probability was the best because there was a lot of concentration and communication between each other which I find quite fun and positive in a way.
