What to Focus On
- Probability measures the likelihood of an event occurring
- Range: 0 ≤ P(E) ≤ 1
- 0 represents impossible events, 1 represents certain events
- Random Experiment: Unpredictable outcome activity
- Sample Space (S): All possible outcomes
- Event (E): Desired outcomes subset
- Mutually Exclusive: Cannot occur together
- Independent: One doesn't affect the other
- Dependent: One affects the other's probability
Common Mistakes to Avoid
When using AND in probability, you should add the individual probabilities instead of multiplying them
The probability of an event can be greater than 1
P(A or B) always equals P(A) + P(B)
