What is an example of a conditional probability distribution?

Mar 24, 2020 · Conditional Probability This past Monday, we introduced conditional probability in our Blackboard Collaborate session. Here is a brief recap, with some online resources included below that go over the definition and go through some examples.

What is the formula for conditional probability density function?

Mar 24, 2020 · This past Monday, we introduced conditional probability in our Blackboard Collaborate session. Here is a brief recap, with some online resources included below that go over the definition and go through some examples. The conditional probability of A given B is defined as: P(A|B) = P(A & B)/P(B)

What is the conditional probability of P(x \mid y)?

For discrete random variables, the conditional probability mass function of Y Y Y given the occurrence of the value x x x of X X X can be written according to its definition as. P (Y = y ∣ X = x) = P (X = x ∩ Y = y) P (X = x). P(Y = y \mid X = x) = \dfrac{P(X=x \cap Y=y)}{P(X=x)}. P (Y = y ∣ X = x) = P (X = x) P (X = x ∩ Y = y) .

Independent Events

Events can be " Independent ", meaning each event is not affected by any other events.

Dependent Events

But events can also be "dependent" ... which means they can be affected by previous events ...

Tree Diagram

A Tree Diagram : is a wonderful way to picture what is going on, so let's build one for our marbles example.

Notation

We love notation in mathematics! It means we can then use the power of algebra to play around with the ideas. So here is the notation for probability:

Finding Hidden Data

Using Algebra we can also "change the subject" of the formula, like this:
