Constructing Sample Spaces using lists and tree diagrams Lesson 6 (4th 6 Weeks) TEKS 6.9A
Probability • The chance of something happening
Event • Something may happen
Outcome • One of the possible events in a probability situation.
Sampling • An experiment that is conducted to predict probability
Sample Space • The set of ALL possible outcomes for an event • Ways to display the sample space: • List all possible outcomes • Table • Tree diagram
You can also use multiplication to find the total number of possible outcomes. • EX: • 2 types of bread x 3 sandwich fillings = 6 different sandwiches that can be made
Ex: List • On track and field day the students have a choice of either a tuna sandwich, turkey sandwich, or a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. They can have water or milk to drink. Create a list that shows all the possible combinations that the students can have for lunch.

EX: Tree Diagram • There are 6 colored tiles in a bag: 2 blue tiles, 2 red tiles, and 2 yellow tiles. With looking, you draw 2 colored tiles out of the bag at the same time. What are the possible color combinations of the 2 colored tiles drawn?
