What is a two-way table?

Back

A two-way table is a statistical table that displays the frequency distribution of variables. It allows for the analysis of the relationship between two categorical variables.

Define conditional probability.

Back

Conditional probability is the probability of an event occurring given that another event has already occurred. It is denoted as P(A|B), which means the probability of A given B.

How do you calculate conditional probability?

Back

To calculate conditional probability, use the formula: P(A|B) = P(A and B) / P(B), where P(A and B) is the probability of both events occurring.

What does it mean if two events are independent?

Back

Two events are independent if the occurrence of one event does not affect the occurrence of the other. In this case, P(A|B) = P(A).

What does it mean if two events are dependent?

Back

Two events are dependent if the occurrence of one event affects the occurrence of the other. In this case, P(A|B) ≠ P(A).

What is the formula for finding the probability of the union of two events?

Back

The formula is P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A and B).

If 45% of children have a dog and 30% have a cat, what is the probability that a child has a dog given they have a cat?

Back

P(Dog|Cat) = P(Dog and Cat) / P(Cat) = 0.18 / 0.30 = 0.60 or 60%.

How do you interpret a two-way table?

Back

A two-way table can be interpreted by analyzing the frequencies and calculating probabilities to understand the relationship between the two variables.
