Examples of Quantitative and Qualitative Probability - correct answerQualitative Description= impossible
Quantitative Probability = 0% probability
Qualitative Description= Unlikely
Quantitative Probability = 1% to 30% probability
Qualitative Description= As likely as unlikely Quantitative Probability = 40-60%
Qualitative Description= likely
Quantitative Probability = 70-99% Qualitative Description= certain
Quantitative Probability = 100%
experiment - correct answerthe procedure or situation in which the probability is being calculated
example- rolling a dice, raining
outcomes - correct answerthe possibilities of what can occur during the experiment, the results
rolling a dice- 1,2,3,4,5,6 are outcomes
event - correct answercomprised of 1 or more outcomes
die landing on an uneven number is an event 3
probability of an event - correct answerP(E)= probability of a certain event occuring
if R= RAIN and the weatherman says there is a 40% chance of rain, then P(R)= .40
an experiment is fair if - correct answereach outcome is equally likely
An experiment is the procedure to test the occurrence of an event. True or False? - correct answerFalse
Correct. This is a false statement. An experiment is the procedure for which the probability of an
event is calculated.
set - correct answersimply a collection of unique elements.
For example, a set of tree species is: oak, juniper, elm, maple.
subsets - correct answerSet A is a subset* of set B , if every element in A is contained within B .
For example:
A={1,2,3} B={1,2,3,4,5} A is a subset of B , because every element in set A is contained within set B .
empty set - correct answerhas no elements
