-
Example showing how to calculate the probability of A or B using the law p(AorB)=p(A)+p(B)−p(AandB). Easily adapted to other applications.
-
Given P(A), P(A∪B), P(Bc) find P(A∩B), P(Ac∩Bc), P(Ac∪Bc) etc..
-
A few quadratic equations are given, to be solved by completing the square. The number of solutions is randomised.
-
A simple situational question about a box of chocolates, asking how many of each type there are, what percentage of the box they represent, the probability of picking one and ratios of different types.
-
Simple probability question. Counting number of occurences of an event in a sample space with given size and finding the probability of the event.
-
Independent events in probability. Choose whether given three given pairs of events are independent or not.
-
Example showing how to calculate the probability of A or B using the law p(AorB)=p(A)+p(B)−p(AandB). Also converting percentages to probabilities. Easily adapted to other applications.
-
Rolling a pair of dice. Find probability that at least one die shows a given number.
-
Given a probability mass function P(X=i) with outcomes i∈{0,1,2,…8}, find the expectation E and P(X>E).
-
X∼Binomial(n,p). Find P(X=a), P(X≤b), E[X],Var(X).
-
Simple probability question. Counting number of occurrences of an event in a sample space with given size and finding the probability of the event.
-
Compute the experimental probability of a particular score on a die given a sample of throws, and compare it with the theoretical probability. The last part asks what you expect to happen to the experimental probability as the sample size increases.
-
Represent a given probability to a decimal, fraction or percentage.
-
A bag contains balls of three different colours. You're told how many there are of each, and asked the probability of picking a ball of a particular colour.
-
Choose the probability of getting a tails, from four options.
-
This question assesses the students ability to apply both theoretical and experimental probability to calculate expected values the students understanding of how to calculate the relative frequency of an outcome The question also helps to show students how using experimental probability and theoretical probability results in different expected values of an outcome.
-
This question assesses the students ability to find the expected number of times an event occurs given the probability of the event occurring for a single trial and the total number of trials.
-
Given the probabilities that each of four out of five friends will win a round of mini-golf, work out the probability that the fifth friend won't win, then use that to find the probability that they will win.
-
Deciding whether or not three sampling methods are simple random sampling, stratified sampling, systematic or judgemental sampling.
-
Deciding whether or not three sampling methods are simple random sampling, stratified sampling, systematic or judgemental sampling. Also whether or not the method of selection is random, quasi-random or non-random.
-
Find a regression equation.
