Probability Conditional Probability and Independent vs. Dependent events
Conditional Probability A conditional probability is the probability of an event occurring, given that another event has already occurred. The conditional probability of event B occurring, given that event A has occurred, is denoted by P(B/A) and is read as “probability of B, given A.” This is an “and” question, and solved by multiplication
Conditional Probability Two cards are selected in sequence from a standard deck. Find the probability that the second card is a queen, given that the first card is a king, and we did not replace the king. Two cards are selected in sequence from a standard deck. Find the probability that the second card is a queen, given that the first card is a king, and we did not replace the king. Because the first card is a king and is not replaced, the remaining deck has 51 cards, 4 of which are queens, so P(B/A) = 4/51 Because the first card is a king and is not replaced, the remaining deck has 51 cards, 4 of which are queens, so P(B/A) = 4/51
Conditional Probability Gene Present Gene Not Present Total High IQ Normal IQ Total The above table shows the results of a study in which researchers examined a child’s IQ and the presence of a specific gene in the child. Find the probability that a child has a high IQ, given that the child has the gene. The above table shows the results of a study in which researchers examined a child’s IQ and the presence of a specific gene in the child. Find the probability that a child has a high IQ, given that the child has the gene.
Conditional Probability Gene Present Gene Not Present Total High IQ Normal IQ Total There are 72 children who have the gene so the sample space consists of these 72 children. Of these, 33 have a high IQ, so There are 72 children who have the gene so the sample space consists of these 72 children. Of these, 33 have a high IQ, so P(B/A) = 33/72 P(B/A) = 33/72 0.458
Conditional Probability Gene Present Gene Not Present Total High IQ Normal IQ Total Find the probability that a child does not have the gene. Find the probability that a child does not have the gene. P(child does not have the gene) = 30/102 P(child does not have the gene) = 30/102 Find the probability that a child does not have the gene, given that the child has a normal IQ Find the probability that a child does not have the gene, given that the child has a normal IQ P(B/A) = 11/50 P(B/A) = 11/50

Independent Events Two events A and B, are independent if the fact that A occurs does not affect the probability of B occurring. Two events A and B, are independent if the fact that A occurs does not affect the probability of B occurring. Then P(B/A) = P(B) Then P(B/A) = P(B) Examples - Landing on heads from two different coins, rolling a 4 on a die, then rolling a 3 on a second roll of the die. Examples - Landing on heads from two different coins, rolling a 4 on a die, then rolling a 3 on a second roll of the die. Probability of A and B occurring: Probability of A and B occurring: P(A and B)=P(A)*P(B) P(A and B)=P(A)*P(B)

Experiment 1 A coin is tossed and a 6-sided die is rolled. Find the probability of landing on the head side of the coin and rolling a 3 on the die. A coin is tossed and a 6-sided die is rolled. Find the probability of landing on the head side of the coin and rolling a 3 on the die. P (head)=1/2 P (head)=1/2 P(3)=1/6 P(3)=1/6 P (head and 3)=P (head)*P(3) P (head and 3)=P (head)*P(3) =1/2 * 1/6 =1/2 * 1/6 = 1/12 = 1/12
