9.2 The Binomial Theorem
What you’ll learn about • Powers of Binomials • Pascal’s Triangle • The Binomial Theorem • Factorial Identities … and why The Binomial Theorem is a marvelous study in combinatorial patterns.
Pascal’s Triangle • Pascal’s Triangle is a listing of the coefficients of the terms in the expansion of a binomial.
Expanding a Binomial Points to note about Binomial Expansions: • The number of terms in the expansion is one more than the exponent. • The sum of the exponents of the variables in a term is always the exponent to which the binomial is raised, assuming both variables are first order in the initial expression. • The coefficient of the second term is the same as the exponent.

9.3 Probability
What you’ll learn about • Sample Spaces and Probability Functions • Determining Probabilities • Venn Diagrams and Tree Diagrams • Conditional Probability • Binomial Distributions … and why Everyone should know how mathematical the “laws of chance” really are.

Example Rolling the Dice Find the probability of rolling a sum divisible by 4 on a single roll of two fair dice.
Example Testing the Validity of a Probability Function Is it possible to weight a standard number cube in such a way that the probability of rolling a number n is exactly 1/(n+2)?
Example Rolling the Dice Find the probability of rolling a sum divisible by 3 on a single roll of two fair dice.
Example Choosing Chocolates Dylan opens a box of a dozen chocolate cremes and offers three of them to Russell. Russell likes vanilla cremes the best, but all the chocolates look alike on the outside. If five of the twelve cremes are vanilla, what is the probability that all of Russell’s picks are vanilla?
Multiplication Principle of Probability Suppose an event A has probability p1 and an event B has probability p2 under the assumption that A occurs. Then the probability that both A and B occur is p1p2.
Venn Diagram Venn diagrams are visual representations of groupings of events. E.g., if 63% of the students are girls and 54% of the students play sports, find the percentage of boys playing sports if 1/3 of the girls play sports.
Example Using the Conditional Probability Formula Two identical cookie jars are on a counter. Jar A contains eight cookies, six of which are oatmeal, and jar B contains four cookies, two of which are oatmeal. If an oatmeal cookie is selected, what is the likelihood it came from the jar A?
Example Shooting Free Throws Suppose Tommy makes 92% of his free throws. If he shoots 15 free throws, and if his chance of making each one is independent of the other shots, what is the probability that he makes all 15?
Example Shooting Free Throws Suppose Tommy makes 92% of his free throws. If he shoots 15 free throws, and if his chance of making each one is independent of the other shots, what is the probability that he makes exactly 10?
