- Combination- the way of selecting several things out of a group, where order does not matter.
- Complement- the complement of a set refers to things outside of the set.
- Compound Events- the probabilistic outcomes from two or more events.
- Counting Principle- a simple way to calculate possible outcomes regardless of how many choices there are.
- Event- Any possible outcome of an experiment in probability.
- Experimental Probability- The ratio of the number of times an outcome occurs to the total amount of trials performed.
- Factorial- The expression n! is a symbol to indicate the product of all counting numbers beginning with n and counting backwards to 1.
- Independent Events- Events whose outcomes do not influence each other.
- Intersection- The set of all elements contained in all of the given sets.
- Line of Best Fit- The line that best represents the trend that the points in a scatter plot follow.
- Outcome – A possible result of an experiment.
- Permutation- the rearranging of objects in an ordered fashion.
- Probability- A measure of the likelihood of an event.
- Random Sample- A sample chosen from a population such that each data unit in the population has an equal chance of being chosen each time.
- Sample Space- the set of all possible outcomes from an experiment.
- Scatter Plot- The graph of a collection of ordered pairs that allows an exploration of the relationship between the points.
- Set- A collection of numbers that have some characteristic in common.
- Simulation- An experiment that models a real-life situation.
- Theoretical Probability- The mathematical calculation that an event will happen in theory.
- Tree Diagram- A diagram that shows all the possible outcomes of an event.
- Union- The set of all elements that belong to at least one of the given two or more sets.
- Venn Diagram- A picture that illustrates the relationship between two or more sets.
