TASK 11.1 Probabilities of familiar events Mutually exclusive:These are defined as the events which cannot occur simultaneously. For instance theevent A is defined as occurrence of head and event B is known as occurrence of tail whiletossing a coin. When event A occurs then, it is not possible that event B will occur. Such types ofevents in which A∩B = 0 then A and B are called mutually exclusive events. Conditional probability:The probability of an event A is called conditional probability when the occurrence of adepends upon the knowledge of other event B which has already occurred. The conditionalprobability of A is represented by P (A, B) and is given by: P (A|B) = P (A and B) / P (A)Dependent and independent: The two events are known as dependent events when the outcomes of first event affectthe occurrence or probability of other event. For example if two events A and B are dependentthen their probability can be derived by using formula of conditional probability. Similarly, the events whose occurrence does not depend upon the occurrence of anotherevent are known as independent events. When two events A and B are independent then theysatisfy the following relation: P (A and B) = P (A). P (B)1. Two fair spinners with faces numbered 1-4 Probability of spinner indicating sum of 5 = ? Solution Possible outcomes of both the spinners= (1, 1) (1, 2) (1, 3) (1, 4)(2, 1) (2, 2) (2, 3) (2, 4)(3, 1) (3, 2) (3, 3) (3, 4)(4, 1) (4, 2) (4, 3) (4, 4) Total number of outcomes = 16 Favourable number of outcomes with sum equals to 5 and number 3 on at least one spinner = 21
[(3, 2) (2, 3)] Required probability = 2/16 = 1/8 2.)P(C) = 0.2 P (D) = 0.6 P (C| D) = 0.3 Solution From the formula of conditional probability we have: P (C| D) = P (C ∩ D) / P(C) On putting values from above we get: P (C ∩ D) = 0.3 * 0.2 = 0.06P (D| C) = P (C ∩ D) / P(D) = 0.06 / 0.6 = 0.1 P (C U D) = P (C) + P (D) - P (C ∩ D) P (C U D) = 0.2 + 0.6 – 0.06 = 0.74 Now using the formula: P (C' ∩ D') = 1 - P (C U D) P (C' ∩ D') = 1 – 0.74 = 0.26 Using the formula: P (C' ∩ D) = P (D) - (C ∩ D)= 0.6 – 0.06 = 0.54P (D| C) = 0.1P (C' ∩ D') = 0.26 P (C' ∩ D) = 0.543.)Total number of cards = 52 Probability of card to be an ace, given that it is diamond = ? Solution Let A be the event that card is an ace and B is that event that card is diamond Required probability = P (A|B) 2
P (B) = 13/52 = 0.25 P (A and B) = p (A ∩ B) = 1/52 = 0.019P (A|B) = p (A ∩ B) / P (B) = 0.076 Calculate probabilities 1.)A and B are mutually exclusive events. P (A) = 0.2 P (B) = 0.4 Solution a.) P (A U B) For the mutually exclusive events: P (A U B) = P (A) + P (B)P (A U B) = 0.2 +0.4 = 0.6b.) P (A ∩ B') P (A ∩ B') = P (A) - (A ∩ B)For mutually exclusive events (A ∩ B)= 0 so P (A ∩ B') = P (A) – 0 = 0.2 c.) P (A' ∩ B') P (A' ∩ B') = 1 - P (A U B) = 1 – 0.6 = 0.4 2.)A and B are independent events P (A) = ¼ = 0.25 P (B) = 1/5 = 0.2 Solution a.)P (A ∩ B) For independent events P (A ∩ B) = P (A). P (B) P (A ∩ B)= 0.25 * 0.2 = 0.05b.) P (A ∩ B') P (A ∩ B') = P (A) - P (A ∩ B) = 0.25 – 0.05 = 0.23
P (A ∩ B') = 0.2 c.) P (A' ∩ B') P (A U B) = P (A) + P (B) - P (A ∩ B) = 0.25 + 0.2 – 0.05 = 0.4 P (A' ∩ B') = 1 - P (A U B) = 1- 0.4 P (A' ∩ B') = 0.6 3.)Number of red beads = 3Number of blue beads = 5 Total beads in bag = 8 Solution a.) Probability that both beads are blue Required probability = (5/8) * (5/8) = 25/64 = 0.39 P (Both beads are blue) = 0.39b.) Probability that second bead is blue Required probability = P (both are blue) + P (First is red and second is blue) = 0.39 + [(3/8) * (5/8)] = 0.62 P (second bead is blue) = 0.621.2 Relative frequencies as probability measure No. of meals a day Frequency 16223356414a.)
