Year 9 Summer Term Unit 5 Handling Data 4 6 Hours

 

Objective

NNS

Resources

Use the vocabulary of probability in interpreting results involving uncertainty and prediction.

Probability (276–285)

 

Identify all the mutually exclusive outcomes of an experiment; know that the sum of probabilities of all mutually exclusive outcomes is 1 and use this when solving problems.

Probability (276–285)

 

Estimate probabilities from experimental data.

Probability (276–285)

 

Compare experimental and theoretical probabilities in a range of contexts; appreciate the difference between mathematical explanation and experimental evidence.
