    • What is the value of P(A|B) when drawing a red card given that a heart has already been drawn?
      11
    • What is the relationship between P(A|B) and P(A) for independent events?
      P(AB)=P(A|B) =P(A) P(A)

    • Conditional probability is the probability of an event A occurring regardless of event B.
      False
    • The conditional probability formula allows calculating the probability of one event given another has occurred.

      True
    • Match the type of event with its relationship:
      Independent Events ↔️ P(A and B) = P(A) × P(B)
      Dependent Events ↔️ P(A and B) ≠ P(A) × P(B)
    • Conditional probability is the probability of an event occurring given that another event has already occurred.

      True
    • For independent events, the probability of both events occurring is the product of their individual probabilities.
      True
    • The probability of dependent events A and B occurring together is equal to the product of their individual probabilities.
      False
    • For dependent events, the probability of A and B is not equal to the product of their individual probabilities
    • When rolling a 6-sided die, the probability of rolling an odd number is 1/2.

      True

      Probability given another event

      1
    • How is the probability of two independent events calculated?
      P(A) × P(B)
    • Independent events occur when the occurrence of one event does not affect the probability of the other event
    • Why is drawing cards from a deck without replacement considered a dependent event?
      Composition of deck changes
    • If P(A ∩ B) = 1/6 and P(B) = 1/2, then P(A|B) = 1/3
