Select or make an appropriate statement based on real-world examples of conditional probability.

Clarifications:

Essential Understandings

Concrete:

  • Distinguish independent events (e.g., a coin toss) from dependent events (e.g., three red chips and two blue – if I remove a red chip, the probability or chance I pull a blue chip next changes).
  • Demonstrate concepts of more (likely), less (likely), good (probability), high (probability), low (probability), and same (probability).
Representation:
  • Understand the following concepts and vocabulary: probability, category, classify, dependent, independent and likelihood.
  • Understand the difference between dependent and independent events (e.g., flipping the two coins are two independent events).

Number: MAFS.912.S-CP.1.AP.5a Category: Access Points
Date Adopted or Revised: 06/14 Cluster: Understand independence and conditional probability and use them to interpret data. (Algebra 2 - Additional Cluster)

Clusters should not be sorted from Major to Supporting and then taught in that order. To do so would strip the coherence of the mathematical ideas and miss the opportunity to enhance the major work of the grade with the supporting clusters.
