The Addition Rule

P(AB)=P(A) + P(B) P(AB)

The Addition Rule for N Mutually Exclusive Events P(A1 A2 A3 .AN)=P(A1)+P(A2)+P(A3)+.P(AN) Conditional Probability P(A|B) = P(A B) and P(B) General Multiplication Rule P(B|A) = P(A B) P(A) P(AB)= P(A) P(B|A) = P(B) P(A|B) P(A1 A2 AN) = P(A1)P(A2) P(AN)

Multiplication Rule for N Independent Events

Statistical IndependenceP(A|B)=P(A) and P(B|A)=P(B)
