| Benchmarks (5 - 7) |
|
| H. | Find all possible outcomes of simple experiments or problem situations, using methods such as lists, arrays and tree diagrams. |
| I. | Describe the probability of an event using ratios, including fractional notation. |
| K. | Make and justify predictions based on experimental and theoretical probabilities. |
|
| Benchmarks (8 - 10) |

|
| Grade Level Indicators (Grade 7) |
|
| 7. | Compute probabilities of compound events; e.g., multiple coin tosses or multiple rolls of number cubes, using such methods as organized lists, tree diagrams and area models. |
|
| Grade Level Indicators (Grade 9) |
|
| 10. | Use theoretical and experimental probability, including simulations or random numbers, to estimate probabilities and to solve problems dealing with uncertainty; e.g., compound events, independent events, simple dependent events. |
|
| Grade Level Indicators (Grade 11) |
|
| 10. | Understand and use the concept of random variable, and compute and interpret the expected value for a random variable in simple cases. |
