Conditional Probability
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..
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 event B has occurred, then the probability..
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..
Bayes Theorem, Binomial and Poisson Distributions
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 publishe..
Probability (continued) Conclusion
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 Poisso..
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..

Multiplication Rule of Probability
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 rul..
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' experime..
Remark 7:
So far, we have assumed that the elementary events are equally likely and we have used the corresponding definition of probability. However the same definition of conditional probability can also be used when the elementary events are not equally likely. This will be ..
