Statistics APMrs. Skaff
Today you will learn how to… Construct Venn Diagrams, Tables, and
Tree Diagrams and use them to calculate probabilities
Calculate probabilities for nondisjoint events
Modify the multiplication rule to accommodate non-independent events
Calculate conditional probabilities
AP Statistics, Section 6.3, Part 1 2
Non-Independent Events
AP Statistics, Section 6.3, Part 1 3
You draw a card from a deck and then draw another one without replacing the first card. What is the probability that you draw a diamond and then another diamond?
GENERAL MULTIPLICATION RULEThe joint probability that both of two events
A and B happen together can be found by
P(A and B) = P(A)P(B|A)
Here P(B|A) is the conditional probability that B occurs given the information that A occurs.

Rule #3 (addition rule for disjoint events!)
P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B)

A and B
P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B) – P(A and B)

Example Claire and Alex are awaiting the decision
about a promotion. Claire guesses her probability of her getting a promotion at .7 and Alex’s probability at .5. Claire also thinks the probability of both getting promoted is .3

Example What’s the probability of either
Claire or Alex getting promotedP(C or A)? P(C) = 0.7 P(A) = 0.5 P(C and A) = 0.3

The probability that a a person is young, given that they are married
This is known as a “conditional probability”

Conditional Probabilities Conditional probability measures the probability of an
event A occurring given that B has already occurred. There is a formula for this in your packets. Sometimes it can be confusing for solving real-life problems…
It is usually easier to use a tree diagram, venn diagram, or table to solve these problems!!!

yellow, 4 blue, and 2 green marbles. Given you have a green marble, what is the probability it came from Bag A?

receives 70% of his parts from factory F1 and the rest from factory F2. Suppose 3% of the output from F1 are defective, while only 2% of the output from F2 are defective. What is the probability the part is defective?
