The questions might get moved around, so im sorry if they do:/
1. What is probability?
Probability is a measure of the likelihood that a certain event will occur.
2. How is probability typically expressed?
Probability is typically expressed as a number between 0 and 1, where 0 indicates impossibility and 1 indicates certainty. The closer the number is to 1, the more likely the event is to occur.
3. How can you calculate the probability of an event?
The probability of an event can be calculated by dividing the number of favorable outcomes by the total number of possible outcomes.
4. What is the sample space in probability?
The sample space in probability is the set of all possible outcomes of a random experiment.
5. What is the difference between theoretical probability and experimental probability?
Theoretical probability is calculated based on the number of possible outcomes and assumptions about the likelihood of each outcome, while experimental probability is based on the results of actual experiments or observations.
6. What is the complement of an event in probability?
The complement of an event in probability is the set of all outcomes that are not in the event. The probability of the complement of an event is equal to 1 minus the probability of the event itself.
