- 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 and B) = P(A) x P(B).
