. Chapter 14 From Randomness to Probability

Slide Dealing with Random Phenomena A is a situation in which we know what outcomes could happen, but we don’t know which particular outcome will happen In general, each occasion upon which we observe a random phenomenon is called a At each trial, we note the value of the random phenomenon, and call it an When we combine outcomes, the resulting combination is an The collection of all possible outcomes is called the

Slide When thinking about what happens with combinations of outcomes, things are simplified if the individual trials are The says that the long-run relative frequency of repeated independent events gets closer and closer to a single value. We call the single value the of the event - often called empirical probability When we express a degree of uncertainty without basing it on long-run relative frequencies, we are stating or personal probabilities The Law of Large Numbers

Slide Modeling Probability The probability of an event is the number of outcomes in the event divided by the total number of possible outcomes.That is, P(A) = # outcomes in A # possible outcomes

Slide The First Three Rules of Working with Probability We are dealing with probabilities now, not data, but the three rules don’t change Make a picture

Slide The First Three Rules of Working with Probability (cont.) The most common kind of picture to make is called a Venn diagram.

Slide Formal Probability 1. Two requirements for a probability a. A probability is a number between 0 and 1 b. For any event A, 2. Probability Assignment Rule: a. The probability of the set of all possible outcomes of a trial must be 1. b. (S represents the set of all possible outcomes.)

Slide Formal Probability (cont.) 3.  The probability of an event occurring is 1 minus the probability that it doesn’t occur:  The set of outcomes that are not in the event A is called the complement of A, denoted

Slide Formal Probability (cont.) 4. Events that have no outcomes in common (and, thus, cannot occur together) are called (or ).

Slide Formal Probability (cont.) Note: Two independent events A and B are, provided the two events have outcomes in common

Slide Formal Probability (cont.) 4. For two disjoint events A and B, the probability that one or the other occurs is the sum of the probabilities of the two events provided that A and B are disjoint

Slide Formal Probability 5.Multiplication Rule (cont.): For two independent events A and B, the probability that both A and B occur is the product of the probabilities of the two events.,provided that A and B are independent.

Slide Formal Probability (cont.) 5. Many Statistics methods require an Independence Assumption, but assuming independence doesn’t make it true Always Think about whether that assumption is reasonable before using the Multiplication Rule

Slide Formal Probability - Notation Notation alert: In this text we use the notation P(A or B) and P(A and B). In other situations, you might see the following: P(A  B) instead of P(A or B) P(A  B) instead of P(A and B).

Slide What Can Go Wrong? Beware of probabilities that don’t add up to 1 Don’t add probabilities of events if they’re not disjoint Don’t multiply probabilities of events if they’re not independent The multiplication of probabilities of events that are not independent is one of the most common errors Don’t confuse disjoint and independent

Slide What have we learned? Probability is based on long-run relative frequencies There are some basic rules to find probabilities of more complex events. We have the: Probability Assignment Rule Complement Rule Addition Rule for disjoint events Multiplication Rule for independent events
