  1. Probability PowerPoint By: Drew Partsch, and Nathan Efstation

  2. Don’t you wish that snowmen could walk? It would be awesomely cool but since there is 0% chance of it happening, it is impossible. http://www.hellokids.com/c_19056/pictures

  3. You might be surprised to go to Florida and play in the snow in the summer. So since Florida is near the equator it is very unlikely for them to get snow. It is very unlikely because they don’t have more than 25% chance of snow. http://ericbpoulin.files.wordpress.com/2010/01/snow-in-florida.jpg

  4. Wouldn’t it be nice to see the Bills win the Super Bowl. It is unlikely because Vegas has predicted that if they get to it they have a 3 in 10 chance of winning it. This means there is less than a 50% chance of winning it. http://www.searchamelia.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/vince-lombardi-trophy.jpg

  5. In a football game you have to flip a coin in the beginning. It is equally likely for the coin to land on heads than tails. It is equally likely because it has a 50% chance for either side. http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/3/3e/Coin_toss_at_Packers_at_Chargers_8-12-06_060812-N-7526R-092.jpg

  6. It is likely that we will be assigned at least 1 piece of homework simply because we have 6 classes per day. This means that there is 60% chance of having homework and 60 is over 50 so it is likely. Clipart

  7. Everyone pretty much has a car. So it is very likely that they have took a drive in it. It is very likely because there is over 75% of them driving in it. Clipart

  8. It is certain if a pie graph is all one color that it will land on that one color no matter which way you spin the spinner. This means that there is a 100% chance of landing on that one color because there are no other colors on the graph. I’m a pie graph but I lost my spinner! Clipart
