Probability (Union) P(A or B or C) P(A or B) = Not mutually exclusive
5
Example P(A) = 0.5 P(B) = 0.7 P(A and B) = 0.3
6
Conditional Probability P(A|B) Probability of an ace given that you have 4 cards in your hand and one of them is an ace.
7
General Multiplication Rule for any 2 events P(A and B) = P(A)P(B|A) Example: Slim is at the poker table. At the moment, he wants to have 2 diamonds in a row. As he sits at the tabke looking at his hand and at the upturned cards on the table, Slim sees 11 cards. Of these, 4 are diamonds. What is the probability of Slim drawing two diamonds

Example 1: STD’s A MAN TESTS POSITIVE FOR A SEXUALLY TRANSMITTED DISEASE. THE TEST IS 98% ACCURATE. IF THE PREVALENCE OF THE DISEASE IN SOCIETY IS 1 IN EVERY 1,000, WHAT IS THE PROBABILITY THAT THE PERSON ACTUALLY HAS THE DISEASE?
12
EXAMPLE 2: BAGS SCREENED BAGS are screened at the PROVIDENCE airport. 78% of bags that contain a weapon will trigger an alarm. 14% of bags that do not contain a weapon will also trigger the alarm. If 1 out of every 1200 bags contains a weapon than what is the probability that a bag that triggers an alarm actually contains a weapon?
