Probability and Simulation Rules in Probability

Probability Rules 1. Any probability is a number between 0 and 1 0 ≤ P[A] ≤ 1 0 ≤ P[A] ≤ 1 2. The sum of all the probabilities of all possible outcomes must equal 1. P[S] = 1 P[S] = 1 3. If two events have no outcomes in common, the probability that the one or the other occurs is the sum of their individual probabilities. P[A or B] = P[A] + P[B] P[A or B] = P[A] + P[B] 4. The probability that an event does not occur is 1 minus the probability that the event does occur. P[A’] = 1 - P(A) P[A’] = 1 - P(A)

Probability Rules (Examples) 1. 0 ≤ P[A] ≤ 1: any proportion is always between 0 and 1 2. P[S] = 1 : probability of getting 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 in tossing a die is ⅙ + ⅙ + ⅙ + ⅙ + ⅙ + ⅙ = 6/6 or 1 3. P[A or B] = P[A] + P[B]: tossing a coin 3 times A: getting all tails B: getting all heads P[A or B] = ⅛ + ⅛ = 2/4 or ¼ 4. P[A’] = 1 - P(A): Probability of getting A in AP Stat is 20% therefore, the probability of NOT getting an A in AP Stats is 80%

Draw a woman aged years old at random and record her marital status. If we drew many women, this is the proportion we would get. Here’s the probability model: Marital Status Never Married MarriedWidowedDivorced Probability P(not married) = 1-P(married) = = Therefore there are 37.8% of women that are NOT married

Marital Status Never Married MarriedWidowedDivorced Probability P(never married or divorced) = P(never married) + P(divorced) = = Therefore there are 37.3% of women in this group that are either never married or divorced

P[A or B ] = P[A] + P[B]P[A and B ] = P[A] x P[B] Addition Rule of union event Multiplication Rule of Independent Variables Ex: Probability of getting a sum of 3 and probability of getting a sum of 5 when you roll a pair of dice Ex: Probability of getting getting a 4 and then another 4 when you roll a die twice P[A or B] = 2/36 + 4/36 = 6/36 = 17% P[A and B] = 1/6 x 1/6 = 1/36 = 2.8% P [A ∩ B] P [A ∪ B]
