  • What is the conditional probability formula?
    P(AnB) = P(A) P(B | A)
  • What is the formula for permutations?
    n! / (n - r)!
  • What is the formula for combinations?
    n! / (r!(n - r)!)
  • What is the formula for independent events?
    P(A | B) = P(A)
  • What is the product rule for independent events?
    P(A ∩ B) = P(A) * P(B)
  • What is Bayes' Theorem used for?
    Calculating conditional probabilities
  • What is the general notation for Bayes' Theorem?
    P(A | B) = P(B | A)P(A) / P(B)
  • How is P(B) calculated in Bayes' Theorem?
    P(B) = Σ P(B | A_i)P(A_i)
  • Calculating P(B|A)
    P(B|A)=P(AnB)/ P(A)
  • P(AnB) when mutually exclusive
    P(AnB)=P(A) + P(B)
