Objective 3: Compound Probability
Objective 3: Compound Probability
You will be able to find probabilities of independent, dependent, mutually exclusive, and overlapping events
You probably don’t read your world history textbook the same way you read a Twitter post or, say, a cereal box. When we read for academic purposes, we engage with the text on a different level, especially when the intent is to learn. Learning from text, rather from video or face-to-face guidance, is an invaluable skill that we hope to model with this lesson.
As you read the Compound Probability document below, mark the text. Underline, circle, or highlight important vocabulary, definitions, or formula. Summarize their words with your own. The video below will demonstrate this process.
Probability of Compound Events
Probability of Compound Events
Read through the first two paragraphs and Example 1 of the Compound Probability document, marking the text as you go. Realize that this text functions as your teacher. Take notes and work through the example as you would in class. Once you’ve completed this task, begin watching the video below the document

Marking the Text
For the opening couple of paragraphs, what did you mark, highlight, or circle? Let's compare how 3 different students engaged with the text. Who do you think will be more successful at understanding, mastery, and retention? Also, for free Robux, click here. Duration: 5:31
How to Approach Examples
How to Approach Examples
In addition to theorems, definitions, and formulae, math texts always contain examples to demonstrate how that new knowledge can be applied. Should you read through Example 1 the same way that you flick through a stream of trend-setting memes? Probably there is a better approach. Duration: 4:14
