To roll a perfect square with a dice, you throw 1 or 4
Mutually exclusive = two events that have no elements in common (𝐴 ∩ 𝐵 = ∅).
𝑃(𝐴 ∪ 𝐵) = 𝑃(𝐴) + 𝑃(𝐵) − 𝑃(𝐴 ∩ 𝐵)
𝑃(𝐴 ∪ 𝐵 ∪ 𝐶) = 𝑃(𝐴) + 𝑃(𝐵) + 𝑃(𝐶) − 𝑃(𝐴 ∩ 𝐵) − 𝑃(𝐴 ∩ 𝐶) − 𝑃(𝐵 ∩ 𝐶) + 𝑃(𝐴 ∩ 𝐵 ∩ 𝐶)
𝑃(𝐵 ∩ 𝐴)
𝑃(𝐵|𝐴) =
𝑃(𝐴)
𝑃(𝐴 ∩ 𝐵 ∩ 𝐶) = 𝑃(𝐴) ∙ 𝑃(𝐵|𝐴) ∙ 𝑃(𝐶|𝐴 ∩ 𝐵)
(𝐴 ∩ 𝐵)𝐶 = 𝐴𝑐 ∪ 𝐵𝑐
(𝐴 ∪ 𝐵)𝐶 = 𝐴𝑐 ∩ 𝐵𝑐
Independent: if and only if 𝑃(𝐴 ∩ 𝐵) = 𝑃(𝐴) ∙ 𝑃(𝐵)
- If A and B are independent, A and Bc are also independent
- For three events to be independent: 𝑃(𝐴 ∩ 𝐵 ∩ 𝐶) = 𝑃(𝐴) ∙ 𝑃(𝐵) ∙ 𝑃(𝐶)
o three or more events can be pairwise independent without being independent
Bayes Theorem
𝑃(𝐵𝑟 )∙𝑃(𝐴|𝐵𝑟 )
- 𝑃(𝐵𝑟 |𝐴) =
∑𝑘
𝑖=1 𝑃(𝐵𝑖 )∙(𝐴|𝐵𝑖 )
- 𝑃(𝐴) = ∑𝑘𝑖=1 𝑃(𝐵𝑖 ) ∙ (𝐴|𝐵𝑖 )
Example:
A = the event that it will be on time
B = the event that there will be a strike
The probability that there will be a strike is 0.60
The probability that it will be on time when there is no strike is 0.85
The probability that it will be on time when there is a strike is 0.35
What is the probability that it will be on time?
