Probability Theory
Part 1: Basic Concepts
![Page 2: Probability Theory Part 1: Basic Concepts. Sample Space - Events Sample Point The outcome of a random experiment Sample Space S The set of all possible.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022082709/56649cdc5503460f949a6f36/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
Sample Space - Events Sample Point
The outcome of a random experiment Sample Space S
The set of all possible outcomes Discrete and Continuous
Events A set of outcomes, thus a subset of S Certain, Impossible and Elementary

Event Independence Events A and B are
independent if
If two events have non-zero probability and are mutually exclusive, then they cannot be independent
