|
is a set of outcomes for a particular experiment.
|
|
Certain Event
|
is when an event must happen is has a probability of 1
|
|
Impossible Event
|
is an event that can never happen- it has a probability of zero
|
|

is a diagram that organizes the possible outcome for an expirement.
|
|
Frequency
|
is a number of times something occuurs in a set of data
|
|
The Mean or Average
|
is found by taking the sum of the data divided by the number of data

|
The associative Property
|
says that regrouping numbers when you multiply or add then does not change the result
|
|
The Distributive Property
|
for multiplication over addition says that to multiply a sum you can multiply each addened and add the products (9x(4+3)=9x4-9x3 The distributive property of multiplication over subtraction says that to multiply a difference you can multiply each number and take the difference of the products (9x(4-3)=9x4-9x3.
