  1. Mathematical Fundamentals

  2. Properties of Logarithms: 1 • Logb is strictly increasing • If x<y then logb x < logb y • Logb is one-to-one • if logb x = logb y then x = y • Logb 1 = 0 • Logb ba = a (Logb b = 1)

  3. Properties of Logarithms: 2 • Logb (xy) = Logb x + Logb y • Logb xa = a Logb x • xLogb y = yLogb x • Loga x = (Logb x)/(Logb a)

  4. Probability • X=(x1, x2, ... , xn) X is a set of numbers • P=(p1, p2, ... , pn) P is a set of probabilities • For all 1 £ i £ n, pn is the probability of xn • Average = x1p1+x2p2+ ... + xnpn • Usually written

  5. Summations
