Q

List the four steps to finding the probability of a complex event…

A
  1. ) Draw Probability Tree Diagram
  2. ) Assign probabilities to each branch
  3. ) Multiply the probabilities along individual branches to find the probability of outcome at the end of each branch
  4. ) Add the probabilities of the relevant outcomes, depending on the event (Note: Upside Down U represents and, Upright U represents or; And means Multiply…Or means Add
