Probability
1.
2. Statistical Experiment
- Is a process that generates data and
such
process can be repeated under similar
conditions.
3. Sample Space
- Set of all possible outcome of a
statistical
experiment
- Denoted by S
Sample Point
- refers to each outcome in the sample
space.
4. Event
-subset of the sample space
- Denoted by capital letter A, B, C,D,โฆโฆ,
Z
Nullspace or Empty Space
- an event that contains no sample point
-Also called Impossible event denoted by โ ,
5. Disjoint or mutually exclusive events
- Events that do not have a common
sample
point.
8. A.FUNDAMENTAL PRINCIPLE OF
COUNTING (FPC)
- If an operation can be performed in ๐1
ways and if for each of these a second
operation can be done in ๐2 ways, then
the two operations can be done in ๐1 ร
๐2, ways.
9. B. Permutations
-Is an ordered arrangement of all or a part of n
distinct objects.
Property 1 : The number of permutations of n
distinct objects taken all at a time is
n!
Property 2: The number of permutations of n
distinct objects taken r at a
time is n๐๐ =
๐!
๐โ๐ !
10. Property 3: The number of permutations
of
n distinct object arranged in a
circle (n-1)!
Property 4: The number of distinct
permutations of n things of
which ๐1 are one of a kind ( or
a like ), ๐2 of a second kind ,
โฆ., ๐ ๐ of the kth kind is given
by
๐!
๐ ! ๐ !โฆ.๐ !
11. C. Combination
- Is the number f ways of selecting r objects
without regard to order . This is a special case
of
partitioning in which the elements are
automatically divided into two groups, the
selected ( composed of r objects) and the non-
selected ( composed of n-r objects)

13. Probability is a branch of mathematics
that deals with calculating the occurrence
of a given event.
Definition: The probability of an event A,
denoted by P(A), is the sum of the
probabilities of each sample points ๐1 ,
๐2, ๐3, โฆ . . , ๐ ๐
P(A) = P{}+P{}+P{}+P{}+P{}
