Thank you for you help all people.

Throw out generally means throwing from inside something, to the outside. What you throw from can be figurative or literal. Throw out the washwater, throw somebody out of the group. Throw away is basically just for trash.

 Maybe in the US to throw out and throw away are essentially the same thing. In our English "To throw out" is used to indicate "expelling " as in TO THROW YOU OUT OF THE CLASS.
To throw away indicates Throwing something into the garbage

 Throw out and throw away are essentially the same thing.  It varies from person to person which one you choose to say.  Throw away is generally the more common form.
