(6)  Proportionality. The student applies mathematical process standards to use probability and statistics to describe or solve problems involving proportional relationships. The student is expected to:

(A)  represent sample spaces for simple and compound events using lists and tree diagrams;

(B)  select and use different simulations to represent simple and compound events with and without technology;

(C)  make predictions and determine solutions using experimental data for simple and compound events;

(D)  make predictions and determine solutions using theoretical probability for simple and compound events;

(E)  find the probabilities of a simple event and its complement and describe the relationship between the two;

(F)  use data from a random sample to make inferences about a population;

(G)  solve problems using data represented in bar graphs, dot plots, and circle graphs, including part-to-whole and part-to-part comparisons and equivalents;

(H)  solve problems using qualitative and quantitative predictions and comparisons from simple experiments; and

(I)  determine experimental and theoretical probabilities related to simple and compound events using data and sample spaces.
