How is Conditional Probability mathematically represented?

Back

P(A|B) = P(A and B) / P(B), where P(A|B) is the probability of A given B.

What is the formula for Total Probability?

Back

P(A) = P(A|B)P(B) + P(A|¬B)P(¬B), where ¬B is the complement of B.

Front

What does P(A and B) represent?

Back

The probability that both events A and B occur.

Front

What is the difference between independent and dependent events?

Back

Independent events do not affect each other's probabilities, while dependent events do.

If P(A) = 0.5 and P(B) = 0.4, what is P(A and B) if A and B are independent?

Back

P(A and B) = P(A) * P(B) = 0.5 * 0.4 = 0.2.
