Example • What is P(Married)? • P(Married)=.622 AP Statistics, Section 6.2, Part 2
Example • What is P(not Married)? • P(not Married)= 1-.622=.378 (Complement Rule) AP Statistics, Section 6.2, Part 2
Example • What is P(Never married or Divorced)? • Since “Never married and Divorced are disjoint, P(Never married or Divorced)= .298+.075=.373 (Addition Rule for disjoint events) AP Statistics, Section 6.2, Part 2
Probabilities in a finite space • Assign a probability to each individual outcome. These probabilities must be numbers between 0 and 1 and must have sum of 1. • The probabilities of any event is the sum of the probabilities of the outcomes making up the event. AP Statistics, Section 6.2, Part 2
Benford’s Law • Benford’s Law is the distribution of first digits in tax records, payment records, invoices, etc. • This distribution is handy in spotting illegitimate records. AP Statistics, Section 6.2, Part 2
