Probability Flashcards
1
Q
Ratio rule?
A
P(A) = m/n
m = number of all outcomes when A is true n = number of all possible outcomes
2
Q
Addition rule?
A
P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B),
= P(A) + P(B) – P(A and B)
m = number of all outcomes when A is true
n = number of all possible outcomes
3
Q
Multiplication rule?
A
P(A and B) = P(AB)
= P(A)×P(B) if A and B are independent events = P(A)×P(B|A) if A and B are dependent events
4
Q
Conditional Probability rule?
A
P(B|A) = P(A and B) / P(A)
