Probability I. Sample space. the collection of all possible outcomes of a chance experiment Roll a die S={1,2,3,4,5,6}. Event. any collection of outcomes from the sample space Rolling a prime # E= {2,3,5} Rolling a prime # or even number E={2,3,4,5,6}.

Sample space the collection of all possible outcomes of a chance experiment Roll a die S={1,2,3,4,5,6}
Event • any collection of outcomes from the sample space • Rolling a prime # E= {2,3,5} • Rolling a prime # or even number E={2,3,4,5,6}
Consists of all outcomes that are not in the event Not rolling a even # EC={1,3,5} Complement
Union • the event A or B happening • consists of all outcomes that are in at least one of the two events • Rolling a prime # or even number E={2,3,4,5,6}
Intersection • the event A and B happening • consists of all outcomes that are in both events • Drawing a red card and a “2” E = {2 hearts, 2 diamonds}
two events have no outcomes in common Roll a “2” or a “5” Mutually Exclusive (disjoint)
Venn Diagrams • Used to display relationships between events • Helpful in calculating probabilities
