Vocabulary, Set Notation, and Venn Diagrams
Probability A number from 0 to 1 As a percent from 0% to 100% Indicates how likely an event will occur
Experiment Any process or action that has observable results. Example: drawing a card from a deck of cards is an experiment
Outcomes Results from experiments Example: all the cards in the deck are possible outcomes
Sample Space The set (or list) of all possible outcomes. Also known as the universal set Example: listing out all the cards in the deck would be the sample space
Event A subset of an experiment An outcome or set of desired outcomes Example: drawing a single Jack of hearts
Set List or collection of items
Subset List or collection of items all contained within another set Denoted by A B, if all the elements of A are also in B.
Empty Set A set that has NO elements Also called a null set. Denoted by
Union Denoted by To unite Everything in both sets
Intersection Denoted by Only what the sets share in common
Complement Denoted 2 different ways ' A or A Everything OUTSIDE of this set
