|
data
|
Information collected and used to analyze a particular concept or situation.
|
|
|
event
|
A set of one or more outcomes in a probability experiment (e.g., given a number cube with the numbers 1 to 6 on the faces, the rolling of an even number is an event).
|
|
|
experimental results
|
Probability based on experimental data; the ratio of the total number of times the favorable outcomes happens to the total number of times the experiment is done found by repeating the experiment several times.
|
|
|
impossible outcomes
|
An event that cannot occur in a probability experiment (e.g., rolling the number 7 when tossing a six-sided number cube labeled
1 to 6). |
|
|
line graph
|
A graph that uses line segments to show changes in data; the data usually represents a quantity changing over time.
|
|
|
mean
|
A measure of central tendency; the quotient obtained when the sum of the numbers in a set is divided by the number of addends.
|
|
|
poll
|
The results of a question or questions answered by a group of people.
|
|
|
possible outcomes
|
One of the possible events in a probability experiment (e.g., when tossing a fair coin there are two possible outcomes, heads or tails)
|
|
|
probability
|
The chance of an event occurring; the ratio of the number of favorable outcomes to the total number of possible outcomes; the probability of an event must be greater than or equal to 0 and less than or equal to 1.
|
|
|
survey
|
To ask either written or verbal questions for the purpose of acquiring information/data.
