Probability Events and Independence

Find P(Sophomore U Pass)

• 53/60

• 70/60

• 5/6

The outcome of one event does influence the outcome of the other event.

• mutually exclusive event

• probability

• dependent event

• simple probability

Experimental Probability is:

• What Will happen 

• What actually happens

• What should happen

• What I think Happens

Let M represent the event of randomly selecting a male. Let S represent the event of randomly selecting a person that drives a SUV.

Determine P(M|S).

• 60/156

• 21/156

• 21/60

• 21/240

Let M represent the event of randomly selecting a male. Let S represent the event of randomly selecting a person that drives a SUV. Determine P(S|M).

• 21/156

• 21/240

• 21/60

• 60/156

Are the events "first class passenger" and "survived" independent?

• Independent

• Not Independent

Determine P(Male)

• 21/240
