LEARNING OUTCOMES
At the end of the class, students should be able to:1.

5.
Determine whether an outcomes is a possible outcome of an experiment. Determine the sample space of an experiment. Write the sample by using set notation. Identify the elements of a sample space which satisfy given condition. Find the ratio of the number of times an event occurs to the number of trials.MAIN MENU

SAMPLE SPACE An
experiment is a process or an operation with an outcomes.

SAMPLE SPACE
The set of all possible outcomes of an experiment is called the sample space. It usually denoted by S. space Example 1: En. Adam has a fruit stall that sells bananas, apples, watermelons, papayas and durians. Students of class 4KP are asked to select their favorite fruit from the fruits at En. Adams stall. S = { banana, apple, watermelon, papaya, durian}

SAMPLE SPACE Example
2:
A month is randomly selected from a year. Describe the sample space of this experiment by using set notation. S= { January, February, March, April, May, June, July, August, September, October, November, December}TOPIC MENU
PROBABILITY I7.2 EVENT
TOPIC MENU
EVENTIs a subset of the sample space. Is an outcome or a set of outcomes that satisfies certain condition. Denoted by a capital letter.
TOPIC MENU
EVENT
Example 1: A box contains five cards written with 1,2,3,4 and 5 respectively. A card is picked randomly from the box. S = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}. If we define J as the card with an even number, the outcome of J in set notation will be J = { 2, 4 }.
J is known as an event of the experiment. The number of outcome of an event n(P)=2

EVENT
Example 2: A letter is randomly selected from the word COMPUTER. Determine the number of possible outcomes of the event that the selected letter is i. A vowel ii. A consonant
vi.
Solution Let A = event that the selected letter is vowel = {O, U, E} Therefore n (A) = 3 Let B = event that the selected letter is consonant = {C, M, P, T, R} Therefore n (B) = 5TOPIC MENU

PROBABILITY OF AN EVENT
Probability
of an event E,
P(E) = number of outcomes of the event number of outcomes of the sample space
P(E) = n (E) n (S) 0 P(E) 1TOPIC MENU
PROBABILITY OF AN EVENT P(E)
= 0 means that it is impossible for the event to happen. =1 means that the event is certain to happen. closer the probability of a given event is to 1, the more likely it is to happen.

PROBABILITY OF AN EVENT
Example A bag contains 3 red balls and 4 white ones. If Rashid puts his hand in the bag and picks a ball, what is the probability that the ball he picked is white?
Solution:
S = {R1,R2,R3,W1,W2,W3,W4} n(S)= 7 Let E is the event of drawing a white ball E = {W1,W2,W3,W4} n(E)=4 Therefore, the probability of drawing a white ball is 4 7TOPIC MENU
