Probability
The likelihood or chance of an event occurring If an event is IMPOSSIBLE its probability is
ZERO If an event is CERTAIN its probability is ONE So all probabilities lie between 0 and 1 Probabilities can be represented as a fraction,
decimal of percentages
Probabilty 0 0.5 1Impossibe Unlikely Equally Likely Likely Certain

Experimental Probability
Relative Frequency is an estimate of probability
Approaches theoretic probability as the number of trials increases

Theoretical Probability
Key Terms: Experiment throwing coin die # possible Outcomes, n(S) 2 6 Sample Space, S H,T 1,2,3,4,5,6 Event A (A subset S) getting H getting even #
Probability The probability of an event A occurring is calculated as: P(A)= #A/#Outcomes Examples One letter selected from excellent consonant dice Expectation The expectation of an event A is the number of times the event A is
expected to occur within n number of trials, E(A)=n x P(A) coin , 30 tosses expectd # tails rainfall = 20% , expected # days in sept?

Types of Events
EXHAUSTIVE EVENTS: a set of event are said to be Exhaustive if together they represent the Sample Space. i.e A,B,C,D are exhaustive if:
P(A)+P(B)+P(C)+P(D) = 1
Eg Fair Dice: P(1)+P(2)+P(3)+P(4)+P(5)+P(6)=
![Page 16: PROBABILITY](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070407/56814333550346895dafa828/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Types of Events COMPLEMENTARY EVENTS: two events are said
to be complementary if one of them MUST occur. A’ , read as “A complement” is the event when A does not occur. A and A’ () are such that: P(A) + P(A’) = 1 State the complementary event for each of the following
Eg Find the probability of not getting a 4 when a die is tossed
P(4) = Eg. Find the probability that a card selected at random form a
deck of cards is not a queen.
P(Q’)=
A’A
EVENT A A’ (COMPLEMENTARY EVENT)
Getting a 6 on a die
Getting at least a 2 on a die
Getting the same result when a coin is tossed twice

Types of EventsCOMPOUND EVENTS: EXCLUSIVE EVENTS: a set of event are said to be
Exclusive (two events would be “Mutually Excusive”) if they cannot occur together. i.e they are disjoint sets
INDEPENDENT EVENTS: a set of event are said to be
Independent if the occurrence of one DOES NOT affect the other.
DEPENDENT EVENTS: a set of event are said to be
dependent if the occurrence of one DOES affect the other.

Probabilities of Compound Events
When combining events, one event may or may not have an effect on the other, which may in turn affect related probabilities

Type of Probability
Meaning Diagram Calculation
CONDITIONAL
A given B
Conditional Probability of A given B is the probability that A occurs given that event B has occurred. This basically changes the sample space to B
AND Probability that event A AND event B will occur together.
Generally, AND = multiplication
Note:For Exclusive Events: since they cannot occur together then,
For Independent: Events: since A is not affected by the occurrence of B
OR Probability that either event A OR event B (or both) will occur.
Generally, OR = addition
Note:For Exclusive Events: since such events are disjoint sets,
