Key Topics to Revise
Introduction to Probability
- Probability quantifies the likelihood of an event occurring
- Words like 'probably', 'likely', 'possibly' can be given numerical values
- Events that happen once don't necessarily happen every time
Experimental vs Theoretical Probability
- Experimental probability is based on actual trials and observations
- As number of trials increases, experimental probability approaches theoretical probability
- Historical experiments: Buffon (4040 tosses), Kerrich (10000 tosses), Pearson (24000 tosses)
Sample Space and Events
- Sample space contains all possible outcomes of an experiment
- Events are subsets of the sample space
- Elementary events have only one outcome
Properties of Probability
- Probability of any event lies between 0 and 1: 0 ≤ P(E) ≤ 1
- Sum of probabilities of all elementary events equals 1
- Probability of impossible event is 0
