Investigate Chance Processes And Develop, Use, And Evaluate Probability Models.

Outcomes

  • 7.SP.6
    Approximate the probability of a chance event by collecting data on the chance process that produces it and observing its long-run relative frequency, and predict the approximate relative frequency given the probability. For example, when rolling a number cube 600 times, predict that a 3 or 6 would be rolled roughly 200 times, but probably not exactly 200 times.
    Examples
  • 7.SP.7
    Develop a probability model and use it to find probabilities of events. Compare probabilities from a model to observed frequencies; if the agreement is not good, explain possible sources of the discrepancy.
    Examples
  • 7.SP.7.a
    Develop a uniform probability model by assigning equal probability to all outcomes, and use the model to determine probabilities of events. For example, if a student is selected at random from a class, find the probability that Jane will be selected and the probability that a girl will be selected.
    Examples
  • 7.SP.8
    Find probabilities of compound events using organized lists, tables, tree diagrams, and simulation.
    Examples
  • 7.SP.8.a
    Understand that, just as with simple events, the probability of a compound event is the fraction of outcomes in the sample space for which the compound event occurs.
