Conditional probability

The conditional probability of an event B is the probability that the event will occur given the knowledge that an event A has already occured. This probability is written P(B|A) , notation for ..


The Binomial distribution

In many cases, it is appropriate to summarize a group of independent observations by the number of observations in the group that represent one of two outcomes. For example, the  ...


The Central Limit Theorem

The sample mean 𝜛 from a group of observations is an estimate of the population mean 𝜇. Given a sample size n, consider n independent random variables  X1, X2,  . . ., Xn,  . . .
