Lesson Objectives:

-Find the probability of compound events using multiplication rules of probability.

-Find the conditional probability of an event.

-Understand the difference between independent and dependent events and how to calculate the probability of each.

Common Core Standards:

S.CP.1 - Describe events as subsets of a sample space (the set of outcomes) using characteristics (or categories) of the outcomes, or as unions, intersections, or complements of other events.

S.CP.2 - 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.

S.CP.3 - Understand that 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.

S.CP.5 - Recognize and explain the concepts of conditional probability and independence in everyday language and everyday situations.

S.CP.6 - Find the conditional probability of A given B as the fraction of B's outcomes that also belong to A, and interpret the answer in terms of the model.
