Algebra 2 probability with combinatorics worksheet

Counting the ways something can happen and dividing by the ways anything can happen is all a probability is. With repeated trials the count is a binomial coefficient, which is why this sits next to the counting work.

How to do these

A bag has 5 red and 7 blue. 3 are drawn. $P ($ exactly 2 red $)$

Choose 2 of the 5 red: 10 ways.
Choose 1 of the 7 blue: 7 ways.
Out of 220 ways to choose any 3.

The answer is $\frac{7}{22}$ .

Where students go wrong

Adding probabilities that overlap, or forgetting the ways the successes can be arranged. Exactly 2 successes in 5 trials is not one outcome: there are 10 orders it can happen in, and the binomial coefficient is what counts them.

Also called binomial probability, combinations and probability or at least probability.

What you can put on this worksheet

Drawing from two groups: exactly so many: A deck has 5 red cards and 5 black cards. 2 are dealt. $P ($ exactly 1 red $)$ → $\frac{5}{9}$
Drawing from two groups: at least one: A deck has 5 red cards and 5 black cards. 2 are dealt. $P ($ at least one red $)$ → $\frac{7}{9}$
Exactly r successes in n trials: 5 trials, $P ($ success $) = \frac{1}{2}$ . $P ($ exactly 0 successes $)$ → $\frac{1}{32}$
At least one success in n trials: 5 trials, $P ($ success $) = \frac{1}{2}$ . $P ($ at least one success $)$ → $\frac{31}{32}$
At least r successes: 4 trials, $P ($ success $) = \frac{1}{2}$ . $P ($ at least 1 success $)$ → $\frac{15}{16}$
At most r successes: 4 trials, $P ($ success $) = \frac{1}{2}$ . $P ($ at most 1 success $)$ → $\frac{5}{16}$
Mean and SD of a binomial count: X counts successes in 31 independent trials, each with probability 0.5 of success. Find the mean and standard deviation of X. → mean $15.5$ , SD $2.78$
Arrangements in a line: 6 people, including Ana and Ben, line up in a random order. What is the probability that Ana and Ben stand at the two ends of the line? → $\frac{1}{15}$

Questions about these worksheets

Yes. Every probability with combinatorics sheet is free to print and free to download as a PDF. There is no account to make, no email to hand over and no limit on how many you take.

Yes. The answer key prints on a second page, and you can choose whether it shows each question beside its answer or just the answers in a list.

Yes. Print straight from the page, or download the PDF and print that. The sheet is laid out for paper rather than squeezed off a screen, so there is room to work under each question, and the answer key comes out on its own page.

Algebra 2 is usually taken around 10th or 11th grade, though schools vary and plenty of students meet it earlier or later. Pick the difficulty rather than the grade: the easy level suits a first lesson on it, the hard level suits review before a test.

Yes, as many as you like. The questions are built fresh each time rather than picked from a fixed set of files, so pressing Generate gives a new sheet. That is what you want for a second class, a retake, or two students sitting next to each other.

That is the closest comparison, and Kuta Software is good software. It is also paid software you install on a computer. These worksheets run in a browser tab for free, with no account and nothing to install. Like Kuta, the probability with combinatorics questions are generated when you ask for them rather than pulled from a fixed set of files, so two classes never get the same sheet, and the answer key comes with it.

Yes. There are two levels, and you can tick more than one for a sheet that mixes them, in which case the questions come out easiest first. The harder levels are not just larger numbers: they ask for something the easy ones do not.

You pick from 8: drawing from two groups: exactly so many, drawing from two groups: at least one, exactly r successes in n trials, at least one success in n trials, at least r successes, at most r successes, mean and sd of a binomial count and arrangements in a line. Tick as many as you want and set how many of each, or let it spread them evenly.
