1 Probability Name: Objectives: To know how to calculate the probability of an outcome not taking place. To be able to list all possible outcomes of two or more events in a systematic manner. Starter 1) What is the probability of the following outcomes? a) Throwing a 1 with a dice. b) Throwing a 6 with a dice. c) Tossing a coin and getting a tail. d) Throwing a 2 or a 6 with a dice. e) Throwing an even number with a dice. f) Throwing a prime number with a dice. 2) A ball contains blue balls and 2 red balls. Calculate the probability of: a) choosing a blue at random. b) choosing a red ball at random. c) choosing a black ball at random. d) choosing a blue or a red ball. 3) A bag contains 0 balls. 10 are green, 1 are red and the rest are white. Gemma takes a ball from the bag at random. What is the probability that she takes the following? a) a green ball: b) a white ball. c) a red ball. d) a ball that is not green or white. 4) In a school raffle, 200 tickets are sold. Dean has 0 tickets. What is the probability that he wins first prize?
2 ) A pencil case contains six red pens and five blue pens. Geoff takes out a pen without looking. What is the probability that he chooses: a) a red pen? b) a blue pen? c) a red or a blue pen? d) add together the probabilities for parts (a) and (b). What do you notice? 6) The numbers 1 to 10 are placed in a hat. Chandni takes a number out of the bag without looking. What is the probability that he draws the following? a) the number 7. b) an even number. c) a number greater than 6. d) a number less than 3. e) a number between 2 and 8. 7) A bag contains 2 coloured balls. 12 are red, 7 are blue and the rest are green. Martin takes a ball at random from the bag. a) Find the following. i) P(he chooses red) ii) P(he chooses a blue) iii) P(he chooses a green) b) Add together the probabilities. What do you notice? 8) Think about the following: a) What is an event? b) What is an outcome? Probability that an outcome of an event will not happen 1) a) The probability of winning a prize in a raffle is 1. What is the probability of not 20 winning a prize in the raffle? b) The probability that it will rain tomorrow is 7, what is the probability that it doesn t 10 rain?
3 c) The probability of getting a tail from an unfair coin is 3. What is the probability of getting a head? d) The probability that Nicky will pass his driving test is 3. What is the probability of 7 him failing? 2) A set of 2 cards are shown. a) What is the probability of choosing a card with a sheep on it? b) What is the probability of choosing a card without a sheep on it? c) What is the probability of choosing a card with fish on it? d) What is the probability of choosing a card without a fish on it? 3) An unfair dice has the following probabilities: P(1) = 1 10 P(2) = 2 10 P(3) = 2 10 P(4) = 1 10 P() = 1 10 What is the probability of choosing a 6? 4) There are some blue, red, green and purple balls in a bag. A ball is chosen at random. Find P(purple) if these are the probabilities of the other outcomes: a) P(Blue) = 1 10 P(red) = 3 10 P(green) = 3 10 b) P(Blue) = 8 20 P(red) = 7 20 P(green) = 1 20 c) P(Blue) = 1 10 P(red) = 1 10 P(green) = 1 ) Jean is going on an activities holiday. Each activity lasts a whole day. She can only do one activity a day. The probability that she will go pony-trekking on any one day is 3. a) Work out the probability that Jean will not go pony-trekking on the first day. The probability that Jean will go windsurfing on any one day is b) Work out the probability that Jean will go windsurfing or pony-trekking on the first day. 6) The weather tomorrow will be sunny, cloudy or raining. If P(sunny) = 2, P(cloudy) = 1, what is P(raining)? 4 7) At break time, Chet has a choice of coffee, tea or hot chocolate. If P(he chooses coffee) = 1, 3 P(he chooses hot chocolate) = 1, what is P(he chooses tea)?
4 8) Amelia is either early, just in time or late for work.
