Event • An event is any outcome or a set of outcomes of a random phenomenon. • That is, an event is a subset of the sample space AP Statistics, Section 6.2, Part 1
Probability Model • A probability model is a mathematical description of a random phenomenon consisting of two parts: a sample space S and a way of assigning probabilities to events. AP Statistics, Section 6.2, Part 1
Multiplication Principle • If you can do one task in a number of ways and a second task in b number of ways, then both tasks can be done in a·b number of ways. AP Statistics, Section 6.2, Part 1
