3 Concept Maps

Probability – Complete Chapter Overview

Probability – Complete Chapter Overview

The map in words

  • Probability
    • Basic Concepts
      • Random Experiment
      • Trial
      • Outcome
      • Sample Point
      • Sample Space S
      • Event E
    • Two Approaches
      • Classical Approach
        • Equally likely outcomes
        • P of E = n of E divided by n of S
        • A priori method
      • Empirical Approach
        • Based on experiments
        • P of E = r divided by n
        • Relative Frequency
    • Range of Probability
      • Minimum Value = 0
      • Maximum Value = 1
      • Formula 0 less than or equal to P less than or equal to 1
    • Types of Events
      • Sure Event P = 1
      • Impossible Event P = 0
      • Equally Likely Events
      • Mutually Exclusive Events
      • Complementary Events
        • P of E plus P of E complement = 1
    • Standard Sample Spaces
      • One Coin n S = 2
      • Two Coins n S = 4
      • One Dice n S = 6
      • Two Dice n S = 36

The map in words

  • Random Experiment
    • Perform a Trial
      • What is the Result?
        • Outcome 1
          • Add to List of Possible Results
            • These form the Sample Space
        • Outcome 2
        • Outcome 3

Mind map showing relationship between sample space, outcomes, and events

The map in words

  • Sample Space
    • Definition
      • Set of all outcomes
      • Denoted by S
    • Examples
      • Coin Toss
        • S = H, T
      • Dice Roll
        • S = 1,2,3,4,5,6
      • Two Coins
        • S = HH,HT,TH,TT
    • Events
      • Subsets of S
      • Can contain 1 or more outcomes
