Simple Events
In this program, a look at Venn diagrams and the notion of sample space leads to a discussion of the nature of mutually exclusive, non-mutually exclusive, and complementary events. Day-to-day events are used to determine the selection of the appropri...(more details) |

Uniform Probability Model
Of the many branches of mathematics, probability is among those most rooted in the real world. In this program, we examine the various attributes of experimental probability, look at the uniform probability model, and relate the concept of odds to pr...(more details) |
