Reading 8: Probability Concepts

LOS d: Distinguish between unconditional and conditional probabilities.

 

 

 

Let A and B be two mutually exclusive events with P(A) = 0.40 and P(B) = 0.20. Therefore:

A)
P(B|A) = 0.20.
B)
P(A and B) = 0.
C)
P(A and B) = 0.08.

Let A and B be two mutually exclusive events with P(A) = 0.40 and P(B) = 0.20. Therefore:

A)
P(B|A) = 0.20.
B)
P(A and B) = 0.
C)
P(A and B) = 0.08.



If the two evens are mutually exclusive, the probability of both ocurring is zero.

A)
dividend increases given its earnings increase.
B)
earnings increase and dividend increases.
C)
inventory improves.



A conditional probability involves two events. One of the events is a given, and the probability of the other event depends upon that given.
