Key Topics to Revise

1

Random Experiments and Sample Space

  • Random experiment: An activity that can be repeated under identical conditions with unpredictable outcomes
  • Sample space (S): The set of all possible outcomes of a random experiment
  • Sample points: Individual elements of the sample space
2

Types of Events

  • Equally likely events: Events with the same probability of occurrence
  • Mutually exclusive events: Events that cannot occur simultaneously (A ∩ B = ∅)
  • Exhaustive events: Events whose union equals the sample space (E₁ ∪ E₂ ∪ ... ∪ Eₙ = S)
3

Classical Definition and Basic Probability

  • Classical definition: P(E) = Number of favorable outcomes / Total number of possible outcomes
  • Probability range: 0 ≤ P(E) ≤ 1 for any event E
  • P(impossible event) = 0, P(certain event) = 1
4

Addition Rule and Union of Events

  • General addition rule: P(A ∪ B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A ∩ B)
  • For mutually exclusive events: P(A ∪ B) = P(A) + P(B)
  • Extension to three events: P(A ∪ B ∪ C) = P(A) + P(B) + P(C) - P(A ∩ B) - P(B ∩ C) - P(A ∩ C) + P(A ∩ B ∩ C)
