Probability concepts and probability theorems
Introduction - In our day to day life, we come across many uncertainty of events. We wake up in the morning and check the weather report. The statement could be 'there is 60% chance of rain today'. This statement infers that the chance of rain is more than that having a dry weather. We decide upon ..
Probability (continued)
Let A and B be any two events associated with a random experiment. The probability of occurrence of event A when the event B has already occurred is called the conditional probability of A when B is given and is denoted as P(A/B..
Probability of an Event
If a trial results in n-exhaustive, mutually exclusive and equally likely cases and m of them are favourable to the occurrence of an event A, then the probability of the happening of A, denoted by P(A), is given by: P(A) = m/n. Important terms are 1. Statistical or Empirical P..

Probability of an Event - So far, we have introduced the sample of an experiment and used it to describe events. In this section, we introduce probabilities associated to the events. If a trial results in n-exhaustive, mutually exclusive and equally likely cases and m of them ar..

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 event B has occurred, then the probability..

If x is a discrete random variable assuming the values x 1 , x 2 , x 3 ,….,x n with probabilities p 1 , p 2 , p 3 ,…., p n respectively then (x 1 ,p 1 ), (x 2 , p 2 ),…(x n , p n ) defines a probability distribution of X. Mathematical Expectation of X ..

This Tutor Vista is GREAT! loved this session, it helped me heaps.
It was a great pleasure working with this tutor was able to take me through the steps of my math problems which was very helpful because since I don't have lots of experience with math by the tutor doing the steps it helps me understand a great deal. Im so excited that Im finally getting this amazing service. We got so much done. thank you.
Tutor are so organized and neat with their teachings. She set up everything that made the problems more understandable by showing them in such a simple manner, I feel I could really learn from them and pertain it to my class! :)
Tutor Vista tutors are extremely helpful, patient, and nice to me. They are very talented and experienced tutors! Keep up the good work! - Loren
