Learning standards covered
HSS.CP.A.2Common Core State Standards · Math · 11th GradeUnderstand 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.
Open Global Standard:OGM.13.PRB.2
HSS.CP.A.3Common Core State Standards · Math · 11th GradeUnderstand 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.
