7th HOnors Math simple and compound probability 4/7/21

Master simple & compound probability! 7th grade math worksheet on events, sample space & calculations.

Fill in the blanks. Probability is a number from 0 to 1 (or 0% to 100%) that describes how likely an event is to occur.Sample Space is the set of all possible outcomes for an event.A simple event is an event that has only one outcome; an experiment or action, such as rolling a die, spinning a spinner, drawing a card, or pulling something out of a hat (or bag).A compound event is an event made up of two or more simple events and we use multiplication to calculate it.Independent event's outcome does not affect the outcome of another. Example: flipping a coin and rolling a die or flipping a coin and spinning a spinner.Dependent event's outcome does affect the outcome of another. For example, taking a book off a shelf and then taking another book off the shelf without replacing the first book. Answer the question by filling in the blanks. How many outcomes are there for flipping a coin? 2What is the probability of flipping a coin and landing on Heads: P(H): 1 is the probability of flipping two coins and both landing on Heads: P(H,H)? 1 In your journal create the sample space for flipping two coins sixteen times.Discuss with your partner the theoretical probability of tossing both coins and both landing on heads. 1 find a partner and each toss a coin 16 times recording the results of each toss as you go. For example, HH, HT, etc.What was the experimentall probability of getting two heads in 16 tosses? _How does this compare to the theoretical probability?
