Probability
• “There is a 75% chance of rain tomorrow”
• What does this mean?
![Page 4: Statistics 270 - Lecture 4. Last class: measures of spread and box-plots Have completed Chapter 1 Today - Chapter 2](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051621/5697bf7b1a28abf838c83abb/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Definitions
• Probability of an outcome is a numerical measure of the chance of the outcome occurring
• A experiment is any action whose outcome is uncertain
• Sample space, S, is the collection of possible outcomes of an experiment
• Event is a set of outcomes
• Event occurs when one of its outcomes occurs

Example
• A coin is tossed 1 time
• S=
• Describe event of getting 1 heads
• Event with one outcome is called:

Example
• A coin is tossed 2 times
• S=
• Describe event of getting 1 heads and 1 tails
• Event with more than one outcome is called:

Review of Sets
• The union of two events, A and B, is the event consisting of outcomes that are in either A or B or both
• The Intersection of two events, A and B, is the event consisting of all outcomes that are in both A and B
• The complement of an event A, denoted A’, is the set of all outcomes in the sample space that are not in A

Visually
• Union
• Intersection
• Complement

• Two sets, A and B, are said to be mutually exclusive if they have no events in common
• Visually

Example
• Bag of balls has 5 red and 5 green balls
• 3 are drawn at random
• S=

Example (continued)
• A is the event that at least 2 green are chosen
• A=
• B is the event that 3 green are chosen
• B=

Probability
• Probability of an event is the long-term proportion of times the event would occur if the experiment is repeated many times
![Page 14: Statistics 270 - Lecture 4. Last class: measures of spread and box-plots Have completed Chapter 1 Today - Chapter 2](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051621/5697bf7b1a28abf838c83abb/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Probability
• Probability of event, A is denoted P(A)
• Axioms:• For any event, A, • P(S) = 1
• If A1, A2, …, Ak are mutually exclusive events,
• These imply that 1)(0 AP
0)( AP

Discrete Uniform Distribution
• Sample space has k possible outcomes S={e1,e2,…,ek}
• Each outcome is equally likely
• P(ei)=
• If A is a collection of distinct outcomes from S, P(A)=

Example
• A coin is tossed 1 time
• S=
• Probability of observing a heads or tails is

Example
• A coin is tossed 2 times
• S=
• What is the probability of getting either two heads or two tails?
• What is the probability of getting either one heads or two heads?
![Page 18: Statistics 270 - Lecture 4. Last class: measures of spread and box-plots Have completed Chapter 1 Today - Chapter 2](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051621/5697bf7b1a28abf838c83abb/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Example
• Inherited characteristics are transmitted from one generation to the next by genes
• Genes occur in pairs and offspring receive one from each parent
• Experiment was conducted to verify this idea
• Pure red flower crossed with a pure white flower gives
• Two of these hybrids are crossed. Outcomes:
• Probability of each outcome
![Page 19: Statistics 270 - Lecture 4. Last class: measures of spread and box-plots Have completed Chapter 1 Today - Chapter 2](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051621/5697bf7b1a28abf838c83abb/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Note
• Sometimes, not all outcomes are equally likely (e.g., fixed die)
• Recall, probability of an event is long-term proportion of times the event occurs when the experiment is performed repeatedly
• NOTE: Probability refers to experiments or processes, not individuals

Probability Rules
• Have looked at computing probability for events
• How to compute probability for multiple events?
• Example: 65% of SFU Business School Professors read the Wall Street Journal, 55% read the Vancouver Sun and 45% read both. A randomly selected Professor is asked what newspaper they read. What is the probability the Professor reads one of the 2 papers?

• Addition Rules:
• If two events are mutually exclusive:
• Complement Rule
