Knowledge

Students know:
  • Methods to find probability of simple and compound events.

Skills

Students are able to:
  • Interpret the given information in the problem.
  • Accurately determine the probability of simple and compound events.
  • Accurately calculate the product of the probabilities of two events.

Understanding

Students understand that:
  • Events are independent if one occurring does not affect the probability of the other occurring, and that this may be demonstrated mathematically by showing the truth of P(A & B) = P(A) x P(B).
