Problem of the Day
You roll a regular pair of number cubes. How likely is it that the product of the two numbers is odd and greater than 25? Explain.
Impossible; the only possible products greater than 25 (30 and 36) are even.

9-1 Probability
An activity involving chance, such as rolling a cube, is called an experiment. Each repetition or observation of an experiment is a trial, and each result is an outcome. A set of one or more outcomes is an event. For example, rolling a 5 (one outcome) can be an event, or rolling an even number (more than one outcome) can be an event.
9-1 Probability
The probability of an event, written P(event), is the measure of how likely an event is to occur. A simple event has a single outcome. A compound event is two or more simple events. Probability is a measure between 0 and 1, as shown on the number line. You can write probability as a fraction, a decimal, or a percent.
9-1 Probability
Determine whether each event is impossible, unlikely, as likely as not, likely, or certain.
Additional Example 1A: Determining the Likelihood of an Event
rolling an odd number on a number cube
There are 6 possible outcomes:
2, 4, 61, 3, 5
Not OddOdd Half of the outcomes are odd.
Rolling an odd number is as likely as not.
9-1 Probability
Determine whether each event is impossible, unlikely, as likely as not, likely, or certain.
Additional Example 1B: Determining the Likelihood of an Event
rolling a number less than 6 on a number cube
There are 6 possible outcomes:
61, 2, 3, 4, 5
6 or moreLess than 6 Five outcomes are less than 6.
Rolling a number less than 6 is likely.
9-1 Probability
Determine whether each event is impossible, unlikely, as likely as not, or certain.

9-1 Probability
When a number cube is rolled, either a 5 will be rolled or it will not. Rolling a 5 and not rolling a 5 are examples of complementary events. The complement of an event is the set of all outcomes that are not the event.
Because it is certain that either an event or its complement will occur when an activity is performed, the sum of the probabilities is 1.
P(event) + P(complement) = 1
9-1 Probability
Additional Example 2: Using Complements
A bag contains circular chips that are the same size and weight. There are 8 purple, 4 pink, 8 white, and 2 blue chips in the bag. The
probability of drawing a pink chip is . What
is the probability of not drawing a pink chip?
2 11
P(event) + P(complement) = 1
9-1 Probability
Additional Example 2 Continued
P(event) + P(complement) = 1
P(pink) + P(not pink) = 1
+ P(not pink) = 12 11
Substitute for P(pink).2 11
2 11
- = - 2 11
P(not pink) = 9 11
Subtract from both t sides.
2 11
Simplify
The probability of not drawing a pink chip is . 9 11

Check It Out: Example 2
A bag contains 7 red marbles, 3 green marbles, and 2 yellow marbles. The probability of drawing a red or green marble is . What is the probability of drawing a yellowmarble?
5 6
P (event) + P (complement) = 1
P (yellow) + P (red or green) = 1
P (yellow) + 56 = 1
P (yellow) = 1- 56
=16

Mandy’s science teacher almost always introduces a new chapter by conducting an experiment. Mandy’s class finished a chapter on Friday. Should Mandy expect the teacher to conduct an experiment next week? Explain.
Additional Example 3: School Application
Since the class will be starting a new chapter, it is likely the teacher will conduct an experiment.
9-1 Probability
Check It Out: Example 3A
Bethany rarely gets home before 5 p.m. when she has band practice after school. If Bethany has band practice on Thursday, would you expect her to be home at 4 p.m. that day? Explain.
If Bethany has band practice on Thursday, it’s unlikely that she would be at home at 4 P.M

Terence usually buys new mp3s the day after he gets his allowance. If he got his allowance on Friday, would you expect him to buy new mp3s on Saturday? Explain.
If Terence gets his allowance on Friday, it’s likely he would buy mp3s on Saturday.
