Probabilities 2.2 Probability on a finite set EX 17, 18, 19 Event A Owns some outcomes among the whole set of possibilities between 0% and 100% of the possibilities A is a part of Ω 0 p(a) 1 Equalities that are true IN ANY CASE: ( ) ; ( ) ; ( ) p = 0 0 p A 1 p Ω = 1 ( ) + ( ) = ( ) + ( ) = ( ) p A p A 1 p A B p A B p A ( ) = ( ) + ( ) ( ) p A B p A p B p A B In case the outcomes are EQUALLY LIKELY: ( ) p A = Card Card ( A) ( Ω)
14 TC Mathematics S2 2. Probabilities 2.2 Probability on a finite set Conditional probabilities EX 20, 21, 22 Given two events A and B not necessarily mutually exclusive Their own probability to occur, without any other information, are p(a) and p(b). In general : if we do know that A occured, then this information can make the probability of occurrence of B evoluate. p(b) becomes p A (B). It s proved that: A ( ) p B = ( ) p( A) p A B Special case: If the information «A occured» doesn t affect p(b), so if p A (B) = p(b), then A and B are said INDEPENDENT. Equivalent to: p(a B) = p(a) p(b)
