What will you learn in this course? 

• You will be able to distinguish among the terms experiment, outcome, sample space, and event
• Calculate the probability of an event , , as the number of outcomes divided by the total number of possible outcomes when all outcomes are equally likely and the sample space is finite
• Use the laws of probability:

1. The sum of the probabilities of all the outcomes in a sample space is equal to one
2. for any event
3. , where  is the probability that the event  does not occur

• Use ) to calculate probabilities
• Identify mutually exclusive events  and  such that ;
• Calculate the conditional probability  where 
• Identify independent events;
• Use the property  or  where  and  are independent events
• Construct and use possibility space diagrams, tree diagrams, and Venn diagrams to solve problems involving probability.
