Concepts
Probability
How many times an outcome can occur compared to all to all possible outcomes
The Fundamental Counting Principle
If one event has "m" possible outcomes and another independent event has "n" possible outcomes, then there are (m x n) total possible outcomes.
Relative Area
The total area of a three dimensional shape's surface.
Permutations
Arranging or re-ordering all numbers from a set in an order or sequence.
Combinations
Selecting, arranging, and ordering a certain amount of numbers from a given set of numbers.
Tree Diagramming
A diagram used to find all of the possible outcomes for which an event occurs.
'e' and Logarithms
The number (e) = 2.7182818284590452353602874713527
Logarithms: (The inverse operation to exponentiation) The number of times that a number can be multiplied by itself to get another number.
The Law of Large Numbers
As the number of trials of a random process increases, the percentage difference between the expected and actual values goes to zero.
Theoretical and Experimental Probability
Theoretical: The likeliness of an event happening based on all the possible outcomes.
Experimental: The ratio of the number of times an event occurs to the total number of trials or times the activity is performed.
