Outcomes
In this lesson you will
- Investigate probability through simulation.
- Use simulations to compare theoretical and experimental probability.
By the end of this section you should be able to:
- Demonstrate an understanding that determining probability requires the quantifying of outcomes.
- Demonstrate an understanding of the Fundamental Counting Principle and apply it to calculate probabilities of dependent and independent events.
- Develop and apply simulations to solve problems.
Prerequisites
To be successful in this lesson, it would be helpful to know the following:
- The basic concept of probability.
- The difference between experimental and theoretical probability.
- How to use simulation to model an event.
