This method for calculating probabilities is only appropriate when the outcomes of the sample space are equally likely
Experimental Probability
bull The relative frequency at which a chance experiment occursndashFlip a fair coin 30 times amp get 17
heads
30
17
Law of Large Numbers
bull As the number of repetitions of a chance experiment increase the difference between the relative frequency of occurrence for an event and the true probability approaches zero
Basic Rules of ProbabilityRule 1 Legitimate Values
For any event E 0 lt P(E) lt 1
A probabilityis a number between 0 and 1
The probability of rain must be 110
Rule 2 Sample spaceIf S is the sample space P(S) = 1
ldquoSomething Has to Happen Rulerdquo
The probability of the set of all possible outcomes must be 1
Irsquom 100 sure you are going to have a boyhellip or a girl
If the probability that you get to class on time is 8 then the probability that you do not get to class on time is 2
Rule 3 ComplementFor any event E
P(E) + P(not E) = 1 P(E) = 1 ndash P(not E)
Independent
bull Two events are independent if knowing that one will occur (or has occurred) does not change the probability that the other occursndash A randomly selected student is female - What is
the probability she plays soccer for SHS
ndash A randomly selected student is female - What is the probability she plays football for SHS
Independent
Dependent
Rule 4 Multiplication
If two events A amp B are independent
General rule
P(B) P(A) B) ampP(A
A)|P(B P(A) B) ampP(A If the probability of rolling a 5 on a fair dice is 16 what is the probability of rolling a 5 three times in a row
P( three 5rsquos in a row) = (16) x (16) x (16) = 1216 or 004629

G) amp P(G
Ex 6) Suppose I will pick two cards from a standard deck without replacement What is the probability that I select two spades
Are the cards independent NO
P(A amp B) = P(A) P(B|A)
Read ldquoprobability of B given that A occursrdquo
P(Spade amp Spade) = 14 1251 = 117
The probability of getting a spade given that a spade has already been drawn
Rule 5 AdditionIf two events E amp F are disjoint
P(E or F) = P(E) + P(F)
If the probability that a randomly selected student is a junior (A) is 2 and the probability that the student is a senior (B) is 5 what is the probability that the student is either a junior or a senior
P(A υ B) = P(A) + P(B) if A and B are disjoint
P(A υ B) = 2 + 5 = 7
Rule 5 AdditionIf two events E amp F are disjoint P(E or F) = P(E) + P(F)
(General) If two events E amp F are not disjoint
P(E or F) = P(E) + P(F) ndash P(E amp F)Probability of owning a MP3 player 50Probability of owning a computer 90
So the probability of owning a MP3 player or a computer
is 140

Ex 3) A large auto center sells cars made by many different manufacturers Three of these are Honda Nissan and Toyota (Note these are not simple events since there are many types of each brand) Suppose that P(H) = 25 P(N) = 18 P(T) = 14
Are these disjoint events

Ex 4) Musical styles other than rock and pop are becoming more popular A survey of college students finds that the probability they like country music is 40 The probability that they liked jazz is 30 and that they liked both is 10 What is the probability that they like country or jazz
P(C or J) = 4 + 3 -1 = 6

Ex 5)
If P(A) = 045 P(B) = 035 and A amp B are independent find P(A or B)Is A amp B disjoint
If A amp B are disjoint are they independent
Disjoint events do not happen at the same time
So if A occurs can B occur
Disjoint events are dependent
NO independent events cannot be disjoint
P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B) ndash P(A amp B)
How can you find the
probability of A amp B
P(A or B) = 45 + 35 - 45(35) = 06425
If independent

Coin is TAILS Roll is LESS THAN 3
P (tails or even) = P(tails) + P(less than 3) ndash P(tails amp less than 3)
= 12 + 13 ndash 16= 23
Flipping a coin and rolling a die are independent events
Independence also implies the events are NOT disjoint (hence the overlap)
Count T1 and T2 only once
Sample Space
Ex 7) A certain brand of light bulbs are defective five percent of the time You randomly pick a package of two such bulbs off the shelf of a store What is the probability that exactly one bulb is defective
P(exactly one) = P(D amp DC) or P(DC amp D)
= (05)(95) + (95)(05)
= 095
Ex 8) A certain brand of light bulbs are defective five percent of the time You randomly pick a package of two such bulbs off the shelf of a store What is the probability that at least one bulb is defective
P(at least one) = P(D amp DC) or P(DC amp D) or (D amp D)
= (05)(95) + (95)(05) + (05)(05)
= 0975
Rule 6 At least one
The probability that at least one outcome happens is 1 minus the probability that no outcomes happen
P(at least 1) = 1 ndash P(none)
Ex 8 revisited) A certain brand of light bulbs are defective five percent of the time You randomly pick a package of two such bulbs off the shelf of a store
What is the probability that at least one bulb is defective
P(at least one) = 1 - P(DC amp DC)

Suppose that 40 of cars in Fort Smith are manufactured in the United States 30 in Japan 10 in Germany and 20 in other countries
If cars are selected at random what is the probability that it is not US made
P(not US made) = 1 ndash P(US made) = 1 - 4 = 6
Suppose that 40 of cars in Fort Smith are manufactured in the United States 30 in Japan 10 in Germany and 20 in other countries
If cars are selected at random what is the probability that it is made in Japan or Germany
P(Japanese or German) = P(Japanese) + P(German) = 3 + 1 = 4
Suppose that 40 of cars in Fort Smith are manufactured in the United States 30 in Japan 10 in Germany and 20 in other countries
If cars are selected at random what is the probability that you see two in a row from Japan
P(2 Japanese in a row) = P(Japanese) and P(Japanese) = P(J) x P(J) = 3 x 3 = 09
Suppose that 40 of cars in Fort Smith are manufactured in the United States 30 in Japan 10 in Germany and 20 in other countries
If cars are selected at random what is the probability that none of three cars came from Germany
P(no Germany in three) = P(not G) x P(not G) x P(not G) = 9 x 9 x 9 = 729
Suppose that 40 of cars in Fort Smith are manufactured in the United States 30 in Japan 10 in Germany and 20 in other countries
If cars are selected at random what is the probability that at least one of three cars is US made

Law of Large Numbers
bull As the number of repetitions of a chance experiment increase the difference between the relative frequency of occurrence for an event and the true probability approaches zero
Basic Rules of ProbabilityRule 1 Legitimate Values
For any event E 0 lt P(E) lt 1
A probabilityis a number between 0 and 1
The probability of rain must be 110
Rule 2 Sample spaceIf S is the sample space P(S) = 1
ldquoSomething Has to Happen Rulerdquo
The probability of the set of all possible outcomes must be 1
Irsquom 100 sure you are going to have a boyhellip or a girl
If the probability that you get to class on time is 8 then the probability that you do not get to class on time is 2
Rule 3 ComplementFor any event E
P(E) + P(not E) = 1 P(E) = 1 ndash P(not E)
Independent
bull Two events are independent if knowing that one will occur (or has occurred) does not change the probability that the other occursndash A randomly selected student is female - What is
the probability she plays soccer for SHS
ndash A randomly selected student is female - What is the probability she plays football for SHS
Independent

Ex 6) Suppose I will pick two cards from a standard deck without replacement What is the probability that I select two spades
Are the cards independent NO
P(A amp B) = P(A) P(B|A)
Read ldquoprobability of B given that A occursrdquo
P(Spade amp Spade) = 14 1251 = 117
The probability of getting a spade given that a spade has already been drawn
Rule 5 AdditionIf two events E amp F are disjoint
P(E or F) = P(E) + P(F)
If the probability that a randomly selected student is a junior (A) is 2 and the probability that the student is a senior (B) is 5 what is the probability that the student is either a junior or a senior
P(A υ B) = P(A) + P(B) if A and B are disjoint
P(A υ B) = 2 + 5 = 7
Rule 5 AdditionIf two events E amp F are disjoint P(E or F) = P(E) + P(F)
(General) If two events E amp F are not disjoint
P(E or F) = P(E) + P(F) ndash P(E amp F)Probability of owning a MP3 player 50Probability of owning a computer 90
So the probability of owning a MP3 player or a computer

If P(A) = 045 P(B) = 035 and A amp B are independent find P(A or B)Is A amp B disjoint
If A amp B are disjoint are they independent
Disjoint events do not happen at the same time
So if A occurs can B occur
Disjoint events are dependent
NO independent events cannot be disjoint
P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B) ndash P(A amp B)
How can you find the

Basic Rules of ProbabilityRule 1 Legitimate Values
For any event E 0 lt P(E) lt 1
A probabilityis a number between 0 and 1
The probability of rain must be 110
Rule 2 Sample spaceIf S is the sample space P(S) = 1
ldquoSomething Has to Happen Rulerdquo
The probability of the set of all possible outcomes must be 1
Irsquom 100 sure you are going to have a boyhellip or a girl
If the probability that you get to class on time is 8 then the probability that you do not get to class on time is 2
Rule 3 ComplementFor any event E
P(E) + P(not E) = 1 P(E) = 1 ndash P(not E)
Independent
bull Two events are independent if knowing that one will occur (or has occurred) does not change the probability that the other occursndash A randomly selected student is female - What is
the probability she plays soccer for SHS
ndash A randomly selected student is female - What is the probability she plays football for SHS
Independent
Dependent
Rule 4 Multiplication
If two events A amp B are independent
General rule
P(B) P(A) B) ampP(A
A)|P(B P(A) B) ampP(A If the probability of rolling a 5 on a fair dice is 16 what is the probability of rolling a 5 three times in a row
P( three 5rsquos in a row) = (16) x (16) x (16) = 1216 or 004629

G) amp P(G
Ex 6) Suppose I will pick two cards from a standard deck without replacement What is the probability that I select two spades
Are the cards independent NO
P(A amp B) = P(A) P(B|A)
Read ldquoprobability of B given that A occursrdquo
P(Spade amp Spade) = 14 1251 = 117
The probability of getting a spade given that a spade has already been drawn
Rule 5 AdditionIf two events E amp F are disjoint
P(E or F) = P(E) + P(F)
If the probability that a randomly selected student is a junior (A) is 2 and the probability that the student is a senior (B) is 5 what is the probability that the student is either a junior or a senior
P(A υ B) = P(A) + P(B) if A and B are disjoint
P(A υ B) = 2 + 5 = 7
Rule 5 AdditionIf two events E amp F are disjoint P(E or F) = P(E) + P(F)
(General) If two events E amp F are not disjoint
P(E or F) = P(E) + P(F) ndash P(E amp F)Probability of owning a MP3 player 50Probability of owning a computer 90
So the probability of owning a MP3 player or a computer
is 140

Ex 3) A large auto center sells cars made by many different manufacturers Three of these are Honda Nissan and Toyota (Note these are not simple events since there are many types of each brand) Suppose that P(H) = 25 P(N) = 18 P(T) = 14
Are these disjoint events

Ex 5)
If P(A) = 045 P(B) = 035 and A amp B are independent find P(A or B)Is A amp B disjoint
If A amp B are disjoint are they independent
Disjoint events do not happen at the same time
So if A occurs can B occur
Disjoint events are dependent
NO independent events cannot be disjoint
P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B) ndash P(A amp B)
How can you find the
probability of A amp B
P(A or B) = 45 + 35 - 45(35) = 06425
If independent

Flipping a coin and rolling a die are independent events
Independence also implies the events are NOT disjoint (hence the overlap)
Count T1 and T2 only once
Sample Space
Ex 7) A certain brand of light bulbs are defective five percent of the time You randomly pick a package of two such bulbs off the shelf of a store What is the probability that exactly one bulb is defective
P(exactly one) = P(D amp DC) or P(DC amp D)
= (05)(95) + (95)(05)
= 095
Ex 8) A certain brand of light bulbs are defective five percent of the time You randomly pick a package of two such bulbs off the shelf of a store What is the probability that at least one bulb is defective
P(at least one) = P(D amp DC) or P(DC amp D) or (D amp D)
= (05)(95) + (95)(05) + (05)(05)
= 0975
Rule 6 At least one
The probability that at least one outcome happens is 1 minus the probability that no outcomes happen
P(at least 1) = 1 ndash P(none)
Ex 8 revisited) A certain brand of light bulbs are defective five percent of the time You randomly pick a package of two such bulbs off the shelf of a store
What is the probability that at least one bulb is defective
P(at least one) = 1 - P(DC amp DC)

Suppose that 40 of cars in Fort Smith are manufactured in the United States 30 in Japan 10 in Germany and 20 in other countries
If cars are selected at random what is the probability that it is made in Japan or Germany
P(Japanese or German) = P(Japanese) + P(German) = 3 + 1 = 4
Suppose that 40 of cars in Fort Smith are manufactured in the United States 30 in Japan 10 in Germany and 20 in other countries
If cars are selected at random what is the probability that you see two in a row from Japan
P(2 Japanese in a row) = P(Japanese) and P(Japanese) = P(J) x P(J) = 3 x 3 = 09
Suppose that 40 of cars in Fort Smith are manufactured in the United States 30 in Japan 10 in Germany and 20 in other countries

If the probability that you get to class on time is 8 then the probability that you do not get to class on time is 2
Rule 3 ComplementFor any event E
P(E) + P(not E) = 1 P(E) = 1 ndash P(not E)
Independent
bull Two events are independent if knowing that one will occur (or has occurred) does not change the probability that the other occursndash A randomly selected student is female - What is
the probability she plays soccer for SHS

Ex 6) Suppose I will pick two cards from a standard deck without replacement What is the probability that I select two spades
Are the cards independent NO
P(A amp B) = P(A) P(B|A)
Read ldquoprobability of B given that A occursrdquo
P(Spade amp Spade) = 14 1251 = 117
The probability of getting a spade given that a spade has already been drawn
Rule 5 AdditionIf two events E amp F are disjoint
P(E or F) = P(E) + P(F)
If the probability that a randomly selected student is a junior (A) is 2 and the probability that the student is a senior (B) is 5 what is the probability that the student is either a junior or a senior
P(A υ B) = P(A) + P(B) if A and B are disjoint
P(A υ B) = 2 + 5 = 7
Rule 5 AdditionIf two events E amp F are disjoint P(E or F) = P(E) + P(F)
(General) If two events E amp F are not disjoint
P(E or F) = P(E) + P(F) ndash P(E amp F)Probability of owning a MP3 player 50Probability of owning a computer 90
So the probability of owning a MP3 player or a computer
is 140

Ex 5)
If P(A) = 045 P(B) = 035 and A amp B are independent find P(A or B)Is A amp B disjoint
If A amp B are disjoint are they independent
Disjoint events do not happen at the same time
So if A occurs can B occur
Disjoint events are dependent
NO independent events cannot be disjoint
P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B) ndash P(A amp B)
How can you find the
probability of A amp B
P(A or B) = 45 + 35 - 45(35) = 06425

Coin is TAILS Roll is LESS THAN 3
P (tails or even) = P(tails) + P(less than 3) ndash P(tails amp less than 3)
= 12 + 13 ndash 16= 23
Flipping a coin and rolling a die are independent events
Independence also implies the events are NOT disjoint (hence the overlap)
Count T1 and T2 only once

Ex 7) A certain brand of light bulbs are defective five percent of the time You randomly pick a package of two such bulbs off the shelf of a store What is the probability that exactly one bulb is defective
P(exactly one) = P(D amp DC) or P(DC amp D)
= (05)(95) + (95)(05)
= 095
Ex 8) A certain brand of light bulbs are defective five percent of the time You randomly pick a package of two such bulbs off the shelf of a store What is the probability that at least one bulb is defective
P(at least one) = P(D amp DC) or P(DC amp D) or (D amp D)
= (05)(95) + (95)(05) + (05)(05)
= 0975
Rule 6 At least one
The probability that at least one outcome happens is 1 minus the probability that no outcomes happen
P(at least 1) = 1 ndash P(none)
Ex 8 revisited) A certain brand of light bulbs are defective five percent of the time You randomly pick a package of two such bulbs off the shelf of a store
What is the probability that at least one bulb is defective
P(at least one) = 1 - P(DC amp DC)

Suppose that 40 of cars in Fort Smith are manufactured in the United States 30 in Japan 10 in Germany and 20 in other countries
If cars are selected at random what is the probability that it is not US made
P(not US made) = 1 ndash P(US made) = 1 - 4 = 6
Suppose that 40 of cars in Fort Smith are manufactured in the United States 30 in Japan 10 in Germany and 20 in other countries
If cars are selected at random what is the probability that it is made in Japan or Germany
P(Japanese or German) = P(Japanese) + P(German) = 3 + 1 = 4
Suppose that 40 of cars in Fort Smith are manufactured in the United States 30 in Japan 10 in Germany and 20 in other countries
If cars are selected at random what is the probability that you see two in a row from Japan
P(2 Japanese in a row) = P(Japanese) and P(Japanese) = P(J) x P(J) = 3 x 3 = 09
Suppose that 40 of cars in Fort Smith are manufactured in the United States 30 in Japan 10 in Germany and 20 in other countries
If cars are selected at random what is the probability that none of three cars came from Germany
P(no Germany in three) = P(not G) x P(not G) x P(not G) = 9 x 9 x 9 = 729
Suppose that 40 of cars in Fort Smith are manufactured in the United States 30 in Japan 10 in Germany and 20 in other countries

Suppose that 40 of cars in Fort Smith are manufactured in the United States 30 in Japan 10 in Germany and 20 in other countries
If cars are selected at random what is the probability that the first Japanese car is the fourth one you choose
P(first J is the fourth car) = P(not J) x P(not J) x P(not J) x P(J) = (7)3 (3) = 1029

P(Spade amp Spade) = 14 1251 = 117
The probability of getting a spade given that a spade has already been drawn
Rule 5 AdditionIf two events E amp F are disjoint
P(E or F) = P(E) + P(F)
If the probability that a randomly selected student is a junior (A) is 2 and the probability that the student is a senior (B) is 5 what is the probability that the student is either a junior or a senior
P(A υ B) = P(A) + P(B) if A and B are disjoint
P(A υ B) = 2 + 5 = 7
Rule 5 AdditionIf two events E amp F are disjoint P(E or F) = P(E) + P(F)
(General) If two events E amp F are not disjoint
P(E or F) = P(E) + P(F) ndash P(E amp F)Probability of owning a MP3 player 50Probability of owning a computer 90

Ex 6) Suppose I will pick two cards from a standard deck without replacement What is the probability that I select two spades
Are the cards independent NO
P(A amp B) = P(A) P(B|A)
Read ldquoprobability of B given that A occursrdquo
P(Spade amp Spade) = 14 1251 = 117
The probability of getting a spade given that a spade has already been drawn
Rule 5 AdditionIf two events E amp F are disjoint
P(E or F) = P(E) + P(F)
If the probability that a randomly selected student is a junior (A) is 2 and the probability that the student is a senior (B) is 5 what is the probability that the student is either a junior or a senior
P(A υ B) = P(A) + P(B) if A and B are disjoint
P(A υ B) = 2 + 5 = 7
Rule 5 AdditionIf two events E amp F are disjoint P(E or F) = P(E) + P(F)
(General) If two events E amp F are not disjoint
P(E or F) = P(E) + P(F) ndash P(E amp F)Probability of owning a MP3 player 50Probability of owning a computer 90
So the probability of owning a MP3 player or a computer
is 140

Ex 5)
If P(A) = 045 P(B) = 035 and A amp B are independent find P(A or B)Is A amp B disjoint
If A amp B are disjoint are they independent
Disjoint events do not happen at the same time
So if A occurs can B occur
Disjoint events are dependent
NO independent events cannot be disjoint
P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B) ndash P(A amp B)
How can you find the
probability of A amp B
P(A or B) = 45 + 35 - 45(35) = 06425

Flipping a coin and rolling a die are independent events
Independence also implies the events are NOT disjoint (hence the overlap)

Ex 7) A certain brand of light bulbs are defective five percent of the time You randomly pick a package of two such bulbs off the shelf of a store What is the probability that exactly one bulb is defective
P(exactly one) = P(D amp DC) or P(DC amp D)
= (05)(95) + (95)(05)

Ex 8) A certain brand of light bulbs are defective five percent of the time You randomly pick a package of two such bulbs off the shelf of a store What is the probability that at least one bulb is defective
P(at least one) = P(D amp DC) or P(DC amp D) or (D amp D)
= (05)(95) + (95)(05) + (05)(05)
= 0975
Rule 6 At least one
The probability that at least one outcome happens is 1 minus the probability that no outcomes happen
P(at least 1) = 1 ndash P(none)
Ex 8 revisited) A certain brand of light bulbs are defective five percent of the time You randomly pick a package of two such bulbs off the shelf of a store

Suppose that 40 of cars in Fort Smith are manufactured in the United States 30 in Japan 10 in Germany and 20 in other countries
If cars are selected at random what is the probability that it is made in Japan or Germany
P(Japanese or German) = P(Japanese) + P(German) = 3 + 1 = 4
Suppose that 40 of cars in Fort Smith are manufactured in the United States 30 in Japan 10 in Germany and 20 in other countries
If cars are selected at random what is the probability that you see two in a row from Japan
P(2 Japanese in a row) = P(Japanese) and P(Japanese) = P(J) x P(J) = 3 x 3 = 09
Suppose that 40 of cars in Fort Smith are manufactured in the United States 30 in Japan 10 in Germany and 20 in other countries

Rule 5 AdditionIf two events E amp F are disjoint P(E or F) = P(E) + P(F)
(General) If two events E amp F are not disjoint
P(E or F) = P(E) + P(F) ndash P(E amp F)Probability of owning a MP3 player 50Probability of owning a computer 90
So the probability of owning a MP3 player or a computer
is 140

If P(A) = 045 P(B) = 035 and A amp B are independent find P(A or B)Is A amp B disjoint
If A amp B are disjoint are they independent
Disjoint events do not happen at the same time
So if A occurs can B occur
Disjoint events are dependent
NO independent events cannot be disjoint
P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B) ndash P(A amp B)
How can you find the

Ex 5)
If P(A) = 045 P(B) = 035 and A amp B are independent find P(A or B)Is A amp B disjoint
If A amp B are disjoint are they independent
Disjoint events do not happen at the same time
So if A occurs can B occur
Disjoint events are dependent
NO independent events cannot be disjoint
P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B) ndash P(A amp B)
How can you find the
probability of A amp B
P(A or B) = 45 + 35 - 45(35) = 06425
If independent

Coin is TAILS Roll is LESS THAN 3
P (tails or even) = P(tails) + P(less than 3) ndash P(tails amp less than 3)
= 12 + 13 ndash 16= 23
Flipping a coin and rolling a die are independent events
Independence also implies the events are NOT disjoint (hence the overlap)

Suppose that 40 of cars in Fort Smith are manufactured in the United States 30 in Japan 10 in Germany and 20 in other countries
If cars are selected at random what is the probability that none of three cars came from Germany
P(no Germany in three) = P(not G) x P(not G) x P(not G) = 9 x 9 x 9 = 729
Suppose that 40 of cars in Fort Smith are manufactured in the United States 30 in Japan 10 in Germany and 20 in other countries
If cars are selected at random what is the probability that at least one of three cars is US made
P(at least one US in three) = 1 ndash P(no US in three) = 1 ndash (6)(6)(6) = 784
Suppose that 40 of cars in Fort Smith are manufactured in the United States 30 in Japan 10 in Germany and 20 in other countries
If cars are selected at random what is the probability that the first Japanese car is the fourth one you choose
P(first J is the fourth car) = P(not J) x P(not J) x P(not J) x P(J) = (7)3 (3) = 1029
