The video tutorial discusses the best order to solve a probability problem, suggesting starting with Part B. It explains the setup using a table to understand the relationship between different probabilities. The teacher elaborates on conditional probability with examples, solving Parts B and A, and discusses false positives and negatives in testing scenarios.

Why does the teacher suggest starting with Part B instead of Part A?

• Part A is not relevant to the problem.

• Part B provides information needed for Part A.

• Part B is easier to solve.

• Part B is more interesting.

What percentage of the population is actually sick according to the table?

• 1%

• 10%

• 5%

• 20%

How often does the test correctly identify a sick person?

• 80% of the time

• 50% of the time

• 20% of the time

• 95% of the time

What is the probability of picking a monsoon day in the example given?

• 200 out of 365

• 365 out of 365

• 100 out of 365

• 50 out of 365

What does the intersection symbol in the formula represent?

• Addition of probabilities

• One event happening without the other

• Both events happening at the same time

• Subtraction of probabilities

In Part B, what is known about the person being tested?

• They are definitely healthy.

• They have the disease.

• They do not have the disease.

• They are definitely sick.

Why is it important to know the order of A and B in the formula?

• The order affects the division in the formula.

• The order does not matter.

• The order changes the addition in the formula.

• The order is only important for subtraction.

What is the probability of a false positive?

• 4.95%

• 2.1%

• 5.75%

• 86.1%

What is the probability of a false negative?

• 2.1%

• 5.75%

• 86.1%

• 4.95%

What is the total probability of testing positive?

• 2.1%

• 86.1%

• 5.75%

• 4.95%
