Studying for a chapter examination is
a personal process, one which nobody else can do for you.
Simply take the time to review what you have done.

If you can describe the term, read on to the next one;
if you cannot, then look it up in the text (the section
number is shown in brackets).
Can you explain each of these important ideas in your
own words?
Probability by counting [13.1]
Expectation with and without a cost for playing [13.2]
Finding odds (given probability) [13.3]
Finding probability (given odds) [13.3]
Procedure for using tree diagrams [13.3]
Probabilities of unions and intersections [13.4]
Drawing with and without replacement [13.4]
Tree diagrams to find probabilities [13.4]
Probabilities of binomial experiments.[13.5]
Next, make sure you understand the types of problems
in Chapter 13.
Find empirical probabilities. [13.1]
Find probabilities by looking at the sample space. [13.1]
Decide which of two events is more probable. [13.1]
Find the expectation with a cost of playing. [13.2]
Find the mathematical expectation for a simple event. [13.2]
Find the mathematical expectation for a compound event.
[13.2]
Make decisions based on mathematical expectation. [13.2]
Find expectations for roulette. [13.2]
Know the procedure for using tree diagrams to find probabilities.
[13.3]
Find the probability of a complement. [13.3]
Find the odds, given the probability. [13.3]
Find the probability, given the odds. [13.3]
Find conditional probabilities. [13.3]
Find the probabilities of unions, intersections, and complements.
[13.4]
Find slot machine probabilities. [13.4]
Calculate Keno probabilities. [13.4]
Use tree diagrams to find probabilities [13.4]
Find binomial probabilities. [13.4]
Answer questions involving applied probabilities. [13.1-13.5]
Once again, see if you can verbalize (to yourself) how
to do each of the listed types of problems. Work all of
Chapter 13 Review Questions (whether they are assigned
or not).
Work through all of the problems before looking at the
answers, and then correct each of the problems. The entire
solution is shown in the answer section at the back of the
text. If you worked the problem correctly, move on to the
next problem, but if you did not work it correctly (or you
did not know what to do), look back in the chapter to study
the procedure, or ask your instructor. Finally, go back
over the homework problems you have been assigned. If you
worked a problem correctly, move on the next problem, but
if you missed it on your homework, then you should look
back in the book or talk to your instructor about how to
work the problem. If you follow these steps, you should
be successful with your review of this chapter.
We give all of the answers to the Chapter Review questions
(not just the odd-numbered questions), so be sure to check
your work with the answers as you prepare for an examination.
