Maximum : The maximum of a set of numbers is the highest of the numbers in the set. A function has a maximum at $x_0$ if $f(x_0)\geq f(x)$ for all $x.$
Minimum : The minimum of a set of numbers is the lowest of the numbers in the set. A function has a minimum at $x_0$ if $f(x_0)\leq f(x)$ for all $x.$
Minus : Minus is either a symbol or another word for subtraction.
Number : A number $x$ is a mathematical symbol representing a quantity.
Range : The range of n numbers is the difference between the largest and the smallest number. The range of a function $f$ is the set of all possible values $f(x).$ For example the range of the function $f(x)=x^2$ is the interval $[0,\infty).$
What is the range of the numbers 6, 6, 2, 1 and 4?
Impossible : An event is impossible if it has a probability of 0.
Outcome : A result of a random experiment.
Probability : A probability is a number between 0 and 1 that describes how likely an outcome is. For discrete events that are equally likely the probability can be calculated by dividing the number of favorable outcomes by the number of possible outcomes.
Ten thousandth : Ten thousandth refers to the number $\frac{1}{10,000}=0.0001=10^{-4}.$
Unlikely : An event in a probability experiment in unlikely if the probability of it happening is low.
What does a probability of 0.0001 mean for an outcome?
Division : Division is the mathematical operation that divides objects equally into groups. More generally $x\div y$ is defined as the number that if multiplied by $y$ equals $x.$
Favorable outcome : In a random experiment the favorable outcomes are the outcomes of the event of which we want to calculate the probability. For example if we want to calculate the probability of throwing an even number with a dice the favorable outcomes are 2, 4 and 6.
Possible outcome : Any outcome of a random experiment.
If all outcomes are equally likely how do you calculate the probability of a favorable outcome?
