Addition Rule of Probability
It simply refers to the likelihood of an event taking place whenever the occurrence of an event is uncertain. The probability of a single event can be calculated by dividing the number of successful trials of that event by the total number of trials.
Expected Value
When a large number of trials are performed for any random variable ‘X’, the predicted result is most likely the mean of all the outcomes for the random variable and it is known as expected value also known as expectation. The expected value, also known as the expectation, is denoted by: E(X).
Probability Distributions
Understanding probability is necessary to know the probability distributions. In statistics, probability is how the uncertainty of an event is measured. This event can be anything. The most common examples include tossing a coin, rolling a die, or choosing a card. Each of these events has multiple possibilities. Every such possibility is measured with the help of probability. To be more precise, the probability is used for calculating the occurrence of events that may or may not happen. Probability does not give sure results. Unless the probability of any event is 1, the different outcomes may or may not happen in real life, regardless of how less or how more their probability is.
Basic Probability
The simple definition of probability it is a chance of the occurrence of an event. It is defined in numerical form and the probability value is between 0 to 1. The probability value 0 indicates that there is no chance of that event occurring and the probability value 1 indicates that the event will occur. Sum of the probability value must be 1. The probability value is never a negative number. If it happens, then recheck the calculation.
![EXERCISE 2.2A
Write an expression for the total number of counters in each of these cases.
Use brackets in the expression where possible.
1 6 full boxes of red counters, 2 of blue and 8 of green
2 1 full box of red counters, 12 of green and 15 of yellow
3
4 full boxes of blue counters, 7 of green and 23 extra counters
4
3 boxes of yellow from which 25 counters have been removed in total
5
4 boxes of blue from which 2 counters have been removed from each box
6 5 boxes of red and 1 of yellow from which 12 counters have been removed
from each box and then the remaining number has been doubled
7 2 boxes of blue and 3 boxes of green from which 2 counters have been
removed from each box and then the remaining amount is multiplied by 5
8 1 box of yellow, 4 boxes of blue and 3 boxes of red from which 2 counters
have been removed from each box and then the remaining number has
been doubled
7 boxes of each colour and 5 extra counters for each box
10
a half box of each colour](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F3d944f2a-c8f0-48e1-9ae9-1496862d692c%2Fc92a0e45-9fa2-4993-941d-6ea36d247265%2F53dvvx_processed.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)
