CH27-30 Test Review
1. Determine theoretical probability of a spinner and explain how you might check it using experimental probability
2. Determine odds (chance) of winning a game, i.e pulling a yellow ball from a bag containing 3 yellow, 2 red and 1 blue ball.
3. Given partial information, fill in the numbers of a tree diagram and determine the probability of the outcomes.
4. Given the parameters of an experiment determine the probabilities of the outcomes using and and or.
5. Fill in a contingency table given certain information about an event then use the table to compute the probability of the outcomes.
6. Use a stem-and-leaf plot to find the mean score and to make a box-and-whiskers plot. You should be able to explain each part of the graph.
