Step 3:
We have the following conditions on the variables x and y. a) Sum of the numbers is atleast 15 i.e., x + y 15 b) Difference of the numbers is at most 7 i.e., x - y 7 c) Since the x and y should be positive, we have two more conditions x > 0, y > 0 We call Z a..
Conditional Probability
Conditional Probability - Let us consider the random experiment of throwing a die. Let A be the event of getting an odd number on the die. \ S = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6} and A = {1, 3, 5} Let B = {2, 3, 4, 5, 6}. If, after the die is thrown, we are given the information, that the even..
Probability - I
An experiment repeated under essentially homogeneous and similar conditions results in an outcome, which is unique or not unique but may be one of the several possible outcomes. When the result is unique then the experiment is called a deterministic experiment . Any experim..
Probability (continued) Introduction
Introduction - From our earlier chapter we know that, in statistical experiments, if the events A and B are independent, then But suppose the two events are not independent, that is the occurrence of one depends on the occurrence of other, then how do we compute This can be explained by condit..
Multiplication Rule of Probability
We have already proved that if two events A and B from a sample S of a random experiment are mutually exclusive, then In this section, we examine whether such a rule exists, if ' ' is replaced by ' ' and '+' is replaced by 'x' in the above addition rule. If it does exist, what are the particular ..

Random Experiment and Sample Space
Random Experiment and Sample Space - An experiment repeated under essentially homogeneous and similar conditions results in an outcome, which is unique or not unique but may be one of the several possible outcomes. When the result is unique then the experiment is called a 'deterministic' ..
Introduction
Suppose the two events are not independent, that is the occurrence of one depends on the occurrence of other, then how do we compute This can be explained by conditional probability. Baye's theorem is named after the British mathematician Thomas Bayes who published..
Question 6
Question: The mean of 31 results is 60. If the mean of the first 16 results is 58 and that of the last 16 results is 62, find the 16 t h result. Answer: The sum of 31 results = 60 x 31 = 1860 The sum of first 16 results = 58 x 16 = 928 The sum of second 1..
Conclusion
In this chapter we have studied the method of evaluating probabilities of events relating to independent events and conditional events. We have also studied about random variables and their probability distributions, namely binomial distribution and Poisson..

It's help ful session. I translate my book with him it was great time - William
This tutors are better than my instructors at school, learned alot from this in these past few sessions, thank you Tutor Vista -Abrielle
When ever i visit TutorVista, I always leave with a good understanding of what they are teaching me, you guys are wonderful - Anna
I uploaded a worksheet and I wanted to follow it with the tutor so I could learn the technical parts. It took just a few minutes to get the understanding of what I needed with the tutor. I even get through all the examples on the sheet in 25 minutes that we were focused on it.
