Philosophy of Science, Vol. 50, No. 1 (Mar., 1983), pp. 82-95 (14 pages) The conditional probability of h given e is commonly claimed to be equal to the probability that h would have if e were learned ...

Bank exams typically feature questions on simple probability, conditional probability, combinations and permutations, events (independent and dependent), Bayes’ theorem, and sometimes more complex ...

For any finitely additive probability measure to be disintegrable, that is, to be an average with respect to some marginal distribution of a system of finitely additive conditional probabilities, it ...

Venn diagrams can be useful for organising information about frequencies and probabilities, which can then be used to solve conditional probability problems. 90 pupils were asked whether they owned a ...

90 pupils were asked whether they owned a laptop or a tablet device. 52 said they owned a laptop. 45 said they owned a tablet. 23 said they owned both. Find the probability that a pupil chosen at ...

The main property of a discrete joint probability distribution can be stated as the sum of all non-zero probabilities is 1. The next line shows this as a formula. The marginal distribution of X can be ...
