OBJECTIVES
The following data represent the language spoken at home by age for
residents of San Francisco County, CA between the ages of 5 and 64
years.
P( E ) 1 P( E )
EXAMPLE Illustrating the Complement Rule
P(A I B)
P( A \ B)
P(B)
P (A given B) = P (A and B) / P (B)
where, P (B) is not equal to zero
Conditional probability for independent events, A and B, is
P (A | B) = P (A), and
P (B |A) = P (B)
EXAMPLE Using the Multiplication Rule
1-P(All Survived)=1-0.99186^500=50.4%
