How do you read a tree diagram to determine the possible outcomes for that situation?
Each leaf of the tree is one outcome. To take a simple example, consider the tree for three flips of a coin. The root splits into heads/tails, then each of the two branches splits into heads/tails, and finally each of the four branches splits into heads/tails, for 8 possible outcomes. In this simple case, each of the outcomes is equally probable. To find how many outcomes have exactly two heads, follow each branch of the tree, and put a star by the leaf each time you count two heads. You will find three leaves with exactly two heads (HHT, HTH, and THH). Add the probabilities of these three leaves, to discover that the probability of exactly three heads is 3/8.

A diagram used to determine the number of possible outcomes in a probability situation?
a sample .... i think
What is diagram that is used to show all possible outcomes?
tree diagram?
How do you find probability from a probability generating function?
you ether use a graph tree diagram or web diagram to answer the possible outcomes of the question possible outcomes meaning the number of outcomes the person will have in the probability or divide the number of favourable outcomes by the number of possible outcomes favorible outcomes meaning the number of outcomes all together
What is a sample space diagram in probabiliy?
It is a diagram of all possible outcomes of a probability experiment.
What is the way to identify and count all possible outcomes?
A tree diagram is the way to identify and count all possible outcomes.
