What we did today (01/28/11)

Question: p(of the product of two dice equaling an odd number.

Solution: Look at the side numbers and the top numbers. Multiply both numbers (e.g. for the first one - 1 x 1 = 1). After Multiplying, look at all the numbers and look for all the odd numbers.

Probability Questions (01/24/11)

       1) p(heads then tails) when flipping a regular coin. Use a tree diagram to show the sample space. Express the answer as a percent.

         Answer: 1/4, 1:4, or 25%

                                                                                                                             

          2) p(rolling 4 and then 2) with a six sided dice. Express as a ratio. ( You can use a table or a tree diagram)

         Answer: 1/35, 1:36, or 2.7777* %

                                                                                                                      

       3) p( getting red and blue in any order) when spinning the spinner twice.

       Answer: 1/8, 1:8, 12.5 %

                                                                                                                                                            

       4) Create a tree diagram to show all the possible outcomes when a coin is flipped and a spinner is spun with five equal sections labeled run, skip, jump, twirl, and twist  is spun.

Math notes:

Random is an event which every outcome has an equal chance of occurring.
e.g.
Choosing a random color in a pile of other different colors
or choosing a random shampoo in your washroom. (:
