Example 3: Find Probability
• Count outcomes by using a tree diagram or the
Fundamental Counting Principle.
• Outcome
– A result of an action
• Event
– An outcome or collection of
outcome
• sample space
– Lists all possible outcomes
• tree diagram
– Graphical way of showing a
sample space
• Fundamental Counting
Principle
– Multiply all possibilities
• Probability
– Ratio of SUCCESSFUL
outcome over ALL
outcomes
• Random
– Each outcome is equally

Concept Summary: Biased Samples
Example 1: Determine Validity of Conclusions
Example 2: Determine Validity of Conclusions
Example 3: Use Sampling to Predict
• Predict the actions of a larger group by using a
sample.
• Population
– A large group of people
• Sample
– Small subgroup used to simulate a total population
• unbiased sample
– Sample is chosen to accurately represent the TOTAL
population
• biased sample
– Sample is chosen so that does NOT represent the TOTAL
population.
NOTES
In order for the results of a survey to be valid,
the sample must be chosen so that:
1.
Selection is RANDOM!
2.
People chosen must represent the total population.
If both are true, results are UNBIASED.
If either one is NOT true, results are biased
Un-biased Examples
simple random sample
stratified random sample
systematic random sample
Biased Examples
convenience sample
voluntary response sample
Determine Validity of Conclusions
Determine whether the conclusion is valid. Justify
your answer. To determine which school lunches
students like most, the cafeteria staff surveyed every
tenth student who walked into the cafeteria. Out of 40
students surveyed, 19 students stated that they liked
the burgers best. The cafeteria staff concluded that
about 50% of the students like burgers best.
Answer: The conclusion is valid. Since the population is
the students of the school, the sample is a
systematic random sample. It is an unbiased
sample.
Determine whether the conclusion is valid. Justify
your answer. To determine what ride is most popular,
every tenth person to walk through the gates of a
theme park is surveyed. Out of 290 customers, 98
stated that they prefer The Zip. The park manager
concludes that about a third of the park’s customers
prefer The Zip.
Answer: The conclusion is valid. Since the population is
the customers of the theme park, the sample
is a systematic random sample. It is an
unbiased sample.
Determine Validity of Conclusions
Determine whether the conclusion is valid. Justify
your answer. To determine what sports teenagers
like, Janet surveyed the student athletes on the girls’
field hockey team. Of these, 65% said that they like
field hockey best. Janet concluded that over half of
teenagers like field hockey best.
Answer: The conclusion is not valid. The students
surveyed probably prefer field hockey. This is
a biased sample. The sample is a
convenience sample because the people are
easily accessed.
Determine whether the conclusion is valid. Justify
your answer. To determine whether people prefer
dogs or cats, a researcher surveys 80 people at a dog
park. Of those surveyed, 88% said that they prefer
dogs, so the researcher concluded that most people
prefer dogs.
Answer: The conclusion is not valid. People at a dog
park probably prefer dogs. This is a biased
sample. The sample is a convenience sample
because the people are easily accessed.
Using Sampling to Predict
BOOKS The student council is trying to decide what
types of books to sell at its annual book fair to help
raise money for the eighth grade trip. It surveyed 40
students at random. The books they prefer are in the
table. If 220 books are to be sold at the book fair, how
many should be mysteries?
First, determine whether the sample
method is valid. The sample is a
simple random sample since
students were randomly selected.
Thus, the sample is valid.
0.30 × 220 = 66
Answer: About 66 books should be mysteries.
PENS The student shop sells pens. It surveys 50
students at random. The pens they prefer are in the
table. If 300 pens are to be sold at the student shop,
how many should be gel pens?
