is studied to bridge the gap between descriptive statistics and statistical inference
Theory Of Probability
✔ Order matters → The arrangement or sequence of items is important.
✔ You are selecting or arranging items in a specific order.
PERMUTATION
✔ Order does NOT matter → The group selection is important, but not the arrangement.
✔ You are choosing items without arranging them in a particular order.
COMBINATION
s a term used to indicate the measure of our belief in the chance of that a certain event will occur.
PROBABILITY
also called random experiments.
2. _____ is a set of all possible outcomes of a statistical experiment.
3. ______ set containing only one elements of the sample space.
4. Two events are ______ if they cannot occur simultaneously.
5. Two events are ______ if they have the same number of elements.

Studied to bridge the gap between descriptive and statistical inference.
Each ordered arrangement of all or part of a set of objects is called.
Selections made without regard to order.

a binomial distribution with 1 trial
Bernoulli distribution
- can be thought of as the probability of success or failure outcome in independent repeated trials
Binomial distribution
- almost similar with binomial except it does not require independence among trials
Hypergeometric distribution
- almost the same as binomial distribution except the number of trials is not fixed
- the number of failures before you get a success in a series of Bernoulli trials
- gives the probability of a given number of events happening in a fixed interval of time or region
Negative Binomial distribution
Geometric distribution
Poisson distribution
