2x2x3 = 12 possible outcomes

2. It is a set of all possible outcomes of the experiment.


Answer: Sample Space
3. What do we call to this symbol “!”?
Answer: Factorial symbol
4. In how many ways can one make a selection of 5 red balls, 3 blue balls and 4
yellow balls from a box containing 10 red balls, 6 blue balls and 12 yellow balls?
Answer:

10 C5 + 6C3 + 12C4 = 10! x 6! x 12!__


5! (5)! 3!(3)! 4!(8)!
= 3,628,8000 x 720 x 479,001,600
14,400 36 967,680
= 252 x 20 x 495

= 2,494,800 ways

5. What is the probability of getting 3 or 5 in rolling a die?


Answer:

P(A) = Probability of getting a 3


P(B) = Probability of getting a 5
P( A ∪ B) = P(A) + P(B)
= 1/6 + 1/6
= 2/6 or 1/3
6. It refers to a set of things without reference to the order in which they are arranged.
Answer: Combination

7. This is the result of an experiment.


Answer: Outcome

8. It is a field of mathematics that deals with chance.


Answer: Probability

9. The teacher must select one student for each contest to be the representative of
the class of 35 students. The contests are essay writing, poster making,
extemporaneous speech and quiz bee. How many ways can it be done?
Answer: Permutation:
P (S) = 35!34!33! = 1,256,640
10. This is where probability was originated.
Answer: A Gambler’s Dispute in 1654

11. It refers to every arrangement in order of a set of things.


Answer: Permutation

12. In getting probability of a thing, this is also called as favorable outcome.


Answer: Events

13. Suppose a girl has 5 pairs of pants, 3 skirts and 7 blouses. How many different
outfits are possible?
Answer: P(A) = 5 pairs of pants x 3 skirts x 7 blouses = 105 outfits are possible

14. Find the number of distinct permutations of the letters of the word


“COMMITTEE”?
Answer:

C = 1, O= 1, M= 2, I= 1, T= 2, E= 2
9!
= =¿45,360
2! 2 ! 2 !
15. One card is drawn from a deck. Find the probability of drawing a heart or a 10.
Answer:

P (heart) = 13/52 + P (10) = 4/52


= 17/52 – 1/52
= 16/52
16. It is a devise used to list all possibilities of a sequence of events in a systematic
way.
Answer: Tree Diagram

17. It refers to an activity in which the results cannot be predicted with certainty.
Answer: Experiment

18. A red die and a green die are rolled. It is known that the red die shows a six. Find
the probability that the sum is at least 11. (Conditional Probability)
Answer:

Solution:
P(A): probability of getting a six on a red die.
(6,1), (6,2), (6,3), (6,4), (6,5), (6,6)
P(B): probability of getting a six on a red die and getting a sum of at least 11.
(6,5), (6,6)
P ( A ∩B) 2/36 2 36 1
P(B/A) =
P( A)
= 6/36
= ·
36 6
= 3
