Discrete Probability is the likelihood of an event occurring
within a sample space of finite values. Think about flipping a
coin. There is some likelihood you will see heads, and some you
will see tails. Now think about flipping a coin 2 times. Even
though you know the probability is 50/50 (or 50% for each outcome),
you may get two heads in a row.
Discrete probability has many applications. Discuss how the
myriad applications that discrete probability can be used,...

A sample space is discrete if it consists of a finite or
countable infinite set of outcomes. Consider the number of work
operations at a site the sample space. If the site has 3
departments and each department has 5 separate work operations, how
many work operations are in the sample space?
If the departments are assembly, packaging, and distribution.
How many outcomes are in the event assembly (that is within the
entire sample space)?
Consider the same example, and...
A probability experiment is conducted in which the sample space
of the experiment is S={7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18}, event...
A probability experiment is conducted in which the sample space
of the experiment is S={7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18}, event
F={7,8,9,10,11,12}, and event G={11,12,13,14}. Assume that each
outcome is equally likely. List the outcomes in F or G. Find P(F or
G) by counting the number of outcomes in F or G. Determine P(F or
G) using the general addition rule.

For this assignment, you will create a sample space for an
event, and then calculate probability for another.
Sample Space
Create a sample space for the following procedures and events:
Procedure: flip a coin; Event: tails Procedure: rolling dice;
Event: even number Include a summary in which you briefly explain
the difference between these two events (Hint - not all things are
simple...)
1. True or False: If P(A) is the probability that an event A
will occur, then...
1. True or False: If P(A) is the probability that an event A
will occur, then 0< (or equal to) P(A) < (or equal to)
2.
2.True or False: If S represents the sample space of a random
process, then P(S) =1
3. True or False: According toe the CLT, is a random variable X
does not have a normal distribution in a population, the
distribution of all sample means is approximately normal as long as
the sample size is...
