SC Standards
PS.SPCR.2 Use the multiplication rule to calculate probabilities for independent and dependent events. Understand that two events A and B are independent if the probability of A and B occurring together is the product of their probabilities, and use this characterization to determine if they are independent.
PS.SPCR.3 Understand the conditional probability of A given B as P(A and B)/P(B), and interpret independence of A and B as saying that the conditional probability of A given B is the same as the probability of A, and the conditional probability of B given A is the same as the probability of B.
PS.SPCR.5 Recognize and explain the concepts of conditional probability and independence in everyday language and everyday situations.
2 chaperones needed!
Willing
The students must be willing to participate in this field trip. We are finding a real life application for what we have just recently learned about in class.
Waiting
Please prepare your child to wait for the race and activities to begin. We must get to the track early in order to get a seating area all together.
Winning
We will calculate the likelihood of winning the motor race by using statistical probabilities.
