  1. Introduction to Probability Onur DOĞAN

  2. Introduction to Probability • The Classical Interpretation of Probability • The Frequency Interpretation of Probability • The Subjective Interpretation of Probability

  3. Types of Experiments Experiment and Event: An experiment is anyprocess, real or hypothetical, in whichthe possible outcomes can be identified ahead of time. An event is a well-defined setof possible outcomes of the experiment.

  4. Sample Space The collection of all possible outcomes of an experiment is called thesample space of the experiment. A: Event S: Collection of all events

  5. The Empty Set Some events are impossible. For example, when a die is rolled, it • is impossible to obtain a negative number. Hence, the event that a negative number • will be obtained is defined by the subset of S that contains no outcomes.

  6. Operations of Set Theory

  7. Operations of Set Theory • Intersection and union operations have associativeand distributive properties . • De Morgan’s Law

  8. AxiomsandBasicTheorems • Axiom(1) / Axiom(2) / Axiom(3) • Further Properties of Probability:

  9. AdditionRule/MultipicationRule

  10. Permutations • Obtaining Different Numbers:

  11. Combinations
