| Probability | as the chance of an event occurring |
| Basic concepts of probability | Probability experiments, sample spaces, addition and multiplication rules, and the probabilities of complementary events |
| Processes such as flipping a coin, rolling a die, or drawing a card from a deck | probability experiments |
| Probability experiment | a chance process that leads to well-defined results called outcomes. |
| Outcome | the result of a single trial of a probability experiment |
| A trial | means flipping a coin once, rolling one die once, or the like. |
| Sample | the set of all possible outcomes of a probability experiment |
| Since each die can land in six different ways, and two dice are rolled, the sample space can be presented by a | rectangular array |
| Tree diagram | a device consisting of line segments emanating from a starting point and also from the outcome point; it is used to determing all possible outcomes of a probability experiment |
| Event | consists of a set of outcomes of a probability experiment. |
| Simple event | an event with one outcome |
| Compound event | the event of getting an odd number when a die is rolled since it consists of three outcomes or three simple events |
| Three basic interpretations of probabilty | Classical Probability, Empirical or relative frequency probability, and Subjective probability |
