Data Analysis: Two Dice Toss

Description

This collection of probability experiments can be completed with one pair of dice. The purpose of each experiment is to determine the theoretical and/or experimental probability of specific outcomes. Each activity includes a PDF document with directions and materials and several also include a java applet.

6. Approximate the probability of a chance event by collecting data on the chance process that produces it and observing its long-run relative frequency, and predict the approximate relative frequency given the probability.

a. Understand that, just as with simple events, the probability of a compound event is the fraction of outcomes in the sample space for which the compound event occurs.

b. Represent sample spaces for compound events using methods such as organized lists, tables and tree diagrams. For an event described in everyday language (e.g., "rolling double sixes"), identify the outcomes in the sample space which compose the event.
